Comments

Jarvis Cocker:

This 45rpm double album version of “Different Class” will make it sound a whole lot better. We were obsessed with the fact that this was our “Pop” album &, as everyone knows, all pop albums have 12 songs on them: 6 tracks per side.

Only problem: this took the running time of the record to 53 minutes. We were told this would compromise the audio quality of the vinyl record - but we were more bothered about not compromising the quality of our Pop Dream. Now, 30 years later, we are finally ready for “Different Class” to be heard in all its glory.
