From William Bennet on Anthology 1 Come Organisation Archives 1979-1981
This was, strictly speaking neither a Whitehouse nor a Nurse With Wound album but a special project intended as a Come Organisation/United Dairies joint release - hence the attached UD09 catalogue number. Steve Stapleton produced the 'long' track (part two) and I produced the 'short' track (part one) with assistance from each other and Peter McKay on the other's tracks. It was in 1990 that Alan Trench's PWC and Stapleton decided to market a CD version of the album as Whitehouse/Nurse With Wound for commercial reasons and it was subsequently released by them without my consultation or permission. The proof of the greed is that they could have asked me for the tapes which I would have provided - buttheir haste proved too great. The master tapes were, and always have been, in my possession - when PWC (disguised as United Dairies') went ahead with the CD release they simply mastered it from a vinyl copy of the album. That's why the 'mix' sounds so different (and so disappointingly poor, in my opinion) because, to disguise its origins, reverb and other effects were (rather clumsily) added to it. Susan Lawly decided to include 'part one' on the 1990 compilation 'Cream of The Second Coming' so that at least it was available for people to hear in its proper form. With access here to the original recordings you will notice the enormous difference. It was memorably recorded on Guy Fawke's night 1980 and fireworks played a role in creating some of the sounds.
