Nice to see Domino are reissuing Young Marble Giant’s timeless Colossal Youth album from 1981. Especially as the reissue comes with a bonus CD incorporating the original Salad Days demo, a near-mythical tape I thought had been long lost in the mists of time; and a chance to hear the first unreleased YMGs songs in 25 years.

It’s just a shame they couldn’t have found someone who actually likes the band to write the sleeve notes. Seems odd. Surely, there would have been any number of contenders?
