A Wreckless Eric fan? Yipes. I must admit that I also like a few of his tunes. I once heard that Nick Lowe played bass on 'Whole Wide World' but I'm not sure if that's true. And any guy who poses for an album cover shot with an RM1996 is okay by me!

Thanks for reminding me(I sold my copy back in the 80's).

I sold off my vinyl a few years ago. I had a brown vinyl 10" copy of this and a blue vinyl 12" copy. Also had 'Hit And Miss Judy' in transparent orange and 'The Wonderful World of' in green vinyl. You gotta love that suit!

I used to have an "I'm A Mess" button from Stiff Records.

I've never needed to wear a button. It's usually pretty obvious...
