The Warp Of Pure Fun

originally released on crepuscule in 1985, 'the warp of pure fun' was haig's second solo album, and remains his best known (and biggest selling) long player. glossily produced with former associate alan rankine, it contains no less than four classic singles in 'heaven help you now', 'love eternal', 'big blue world' and 'the only truth', the latter produced by bernard sumner (new order) and donald johnson (a certain ratio). the 7 bonus tracks include a lively version of suicide's biker epic 'ghost rider', on which haig is joined by former josef k cohort malcolm ross, several b-side tracks, and two rare songs which should have reached a wider audience at the time, 'endless song' and 'shining hour'. previously released on cd in japan only, with no bonus tracks, and long deleted, the album has been fully remastered, and the booklet includes detailed sleeve notes.
