Josef K
Heaven Sent : 12” ep [front cover]
Supreme International Editions
Edition 87-7 (1987)
Bit
of a rarity this one I suppose. I’ve no idea how many copies of this
release were ever pressed or sold. Features one track ‘Heaven Sent’,
from a John Peel Session recorded in 1981; a demo version of ‘Radio
Drill Time’ as well as two tracks from Josef K’s then unreleased ‘Sorry
For Laughing’ album which should have been issued by
Postcard Records way back in 1980.
Supreme International Editions was
a label which was run by former Josef K manager, Alan Cambell -who also
handled Paul Haig’s solo career for a couple of years in the 80s. The
label also released the band’s ‘Young & Stupid’ album. Frankly, I
don’t know much about this label or any of the other stuff released on
it. A quick search on the web didn’t bring up much information I’m
afraid. A wee look at the official
Josef K site is worthwhile and has been recently updated. Anyhow, if you want to know what
Paul Haig’s up to nowadays you can check out his
Twitter or his
Paul Haig Music website. He has some exciting new releases on the agenda.
