Josef K - It's Kinda Funny (LP)

Sealed. Limited vinyl LP-only pressing including digital download.

Collection of classic singles by iconic Scottish post-punk guitar group Josef K issued between 1979 and 1982. Cover art by Jean-Francois Octave. Outer sleeve printed on matt reverse board. Inner bag features liner notes and archive images by Simon Clegg.

As well as the three legendary 45s on Postcard Records (‘Radio Drill Time’, ‘It's Kinda Funny’ and ‘Chance Meeting’), the album also includes both Crepuscule singles (‘Sorry For Laughing’, ‘Missionary’) as well as the original Absolute version of ‘Chance Meeting’ from 1979. B-side tracks are also included.

"Josef K were The Sound of Young Scotland, together with Orange Juice, whose guitars were also radiant and brittle, whose rhythms were also scrubbed and blunt, whose vocals were also proud and serious, but who sounded like another group entirely" (Paul Morley); "Josef K was about the heroic Outsider suavely surfing across the fraught surface of their albino funk fracas. Haig sounds high on anxiety, finding an odd, giddy euphoria in doubt." - Simon Reynolds
