Orange Juice - Falling and Laughing

Had a rummage round the house and started opening boxes of my vinyl 45 rpm records because I couldn't get two records out of my head which I knew I had - somewhere: Smog's 'Ex-Con' and Catchers 'Cotton Dress' which I fancied listening to. I came across my copy of Falling and Laughing by Orange Juice and have fond memories of using my school lunchtime (and dinner money) to catch the bus into Lewisham and buy records from a chap known as 'Swinging Cat' who served at the counter of HMV. It's one of my favourite covers. I vividly remember having a copy of this thrown out of a window at a party because the oaf whose party it was thought it was 'crap'. Shame on you. Ah, the olden days...
