I take your point about the squelchy funk bass but I think the album really stands up. I reviewed it on my own blog here: http://itstartswithabirthstone.blogspot.co.uk/2014/04/wilder-wit-and-wisdom-of-julian-cope.html<br />Very pleased to find the site though!

I ...I loved the Teardrops then and I love them now. I saw them at The Bungalow Bar in Paisley back in 1980. I'd bought "Sleeping Gas" and I think "Treason" had just come out (for the first time). I am a fan and I love this music. And I've bought this new "Wilder" (yet again). We do keep getting flogged the same stuff with one or two extra tracks every few years. We all know what is missing and what needs fixed. The material is there and it shouldn't take a genius to get it sorted out for once. <br />I think this re-issue was a missed opporchancity. A badly fumbled next-to-last juggle of the back catalogue which dropped a lot of the best items. This new version of "Wilder" just sticks 3 of the missing Radio One Session tracks onto the existing expanded version "Wilder" and gives us "Christ Versus Warhol". The "Peel Sessions Plus" package from a few years back was incomplete (though it did have "Buchanan" and "Log Cabin" which are missing from this latest "Wilder" incarnation). The string laden "Suffocate" is not here either - the version here is called "Suffocate (new version)" (the same as it was called on the previous expanded "Wilder" CD) but is the YDFV B-side version from 1983. We already had the 9 minute live "Sleeping Gas" on the previous "Wilder" CD AND on the recent 3-CD expanded "Kilimanjaro" set. Such over-duplication makes a mockery of the fans and leaves little excuse for the glaring absences. The inclusion of "Wilder" Radio One Session tracks (such as the glorious "Great Dominions" from The Mike Reid Session 27.10.80) on the recent "Kilimanjaro 3CD set" was a glaring mistake (in my opinion) as such tracks could have been presented on this new 2CD "Wilder" in sequence as a wondrous alternative "Wilder" on the bonus disc with the missing "Suffocate (strings)", "Buchanan", "Log Cabin" (and the rest of the missing Radio One Session) etc. Instead we are sold another hodge podge. <br />I have only a tiny little semblance of hope left for an expanded "Everybody Wants To Shag" CD set which could clear up these inconsistencies and put things to bed properly. Please Julian, please Balfie...

There was a single release too, "Serious Danger", which sounded suspiciously like it had been tweaked to give it a bit of a contemporary, squelchy, post-acid house groove - or it may just have been David Balfe's production being way ahead of his time in 1983.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8213797047475310731.post-15838862011373675612013-06-26T09:47:46.877+01:002013-06-26T09:47:46.877+01:00"Colours Fly Away has brass reminiscent of th..."Colours Fly Away has brass reminiscent of the end credits to Thunderbirds, a fine, high verse and a weak chorus"<br /><br />...is exactly how I remember it.
