The Jesus and Mary Chain- Barbed Wire Kisses (1988)

Late in 84 the NME described The Jesus and Mary Chain as the best band in the world.
This 1988 compilation of singles, b-sides and rare tracks went to #9 in the UK album charts.
Dark and menacing plundering of the lexicon of pop.

    Hey Walker, what happened to tracks 17-20 (Cracked, Here It Comes Again, Mushroom, and Bo Diddley is Jesus)? Don't they appear on the UK version of the record? Anyway, thanks for this out-of-print gem!
