Hearsay & Heresy

Mixtape recorded 30th July 1997, featuring Gavin Friday on Side 1 and Björk on Side 2. 
 
I think the only Gavin Friday album I owned at this point was Shag Tobacco, so this selection is mostly drawn from CD singles, including the Man Of Misfortune EP, which included the two previous singles from Each Man Kills The Thing He Loves as B-sides.
 
Since then, I've collected the remaining albums, Adam 'n' Eve and Catholic, the latter unbelievably over a decade old now. I think Gavin Friday's solo material is hugely underrated and even the songs dispensed with as B-sides stand tall, as I think this selection attests. 
 
1) Rex Mortuus Est (1992)
2) Angel (Album Version By Tim Simenon) (1995)
3) Falling Off The Edge Of The World (Album Version By Hal Willner, Flood & Dave Bascombe): Gavin Friday ft. Maria McKee (1992)
4) Each Man Kills The Thing He Loves (Album Version): Gavin Friday & The Man Seezer (1989)
5) A Thousand Years (1995)
6) Wake Up Screaming (1992)
7) You Take Away The Sun (Album Version): Gavin Friday & The Man Seezer (1989)
8) Sibyl Vane's Suicide (1992)
9) I Want To Live (Single Mix By Dave Bascombe): Gavin Friday ft. Maria McKee (1992)
10) Caruso (Album Version By Tim Simenon) (1995)
11) Laugh, Clown, Laugh (1991)
