Recently reissued via Last Night From Glasgow, this accompanying book is the song-by-song story of the album, from its initial underwhelming sessions to the sparkling, finished product, told through the eyes of the five Trashcan Sinatras and the team that helped realise the band’s ambitions. It features accompanying interviews with long-time admirers and supporters of the band such as Pete Paphides, Eddi Reader, Emma Pollock, Billy Sloan, and Gary Crowley, amongst many others.
Written with a microscopic eye for the finer details by Craig McAllister and lovingly photographed by Stephanie Gibson, the book – beautifully designed by Chris Dooley - promises to be a warm, funny, and definitive account of one of music’s best-kept secrets. The authors will be joined on stage by Frank Reader, John Douglas and Davy Hughes from the band and BBC Radio 6 DJ, Gideon Coe.
