Pillows and Prayers: Cherry Red Records, 1981 - 1984

Description

2003 is a landmark year for Cherry Red Records, its twenty-fifth anniversary. As part of the celebrations we are releasing, for the first time ever on DVD, the visual accompaniment to one of the label's most recognized musical titles 'Pillows & Prayers'. The original 'Pillows & Prayers' compilation album was released in the early 1980's & went on to top the Indie Chart, spending almost a year in the top 30. To this day it is still one of the most acknowledged releases from the label. The Pillows & Prayers video was released a few years after the album, & provides the main focus of the DVD. Many of Cherry Red's most popular acts are featured, including Everything But The Girl, Eyeless In Gaza, The Monochrome Set & the Marine Girls. There are also three bonus tracks, not included on the original video release (Medium Medium 'Hungry So Angry', Eyeless In Gaza 'Veil Like Calm', & Monochrome Set 'Jacobs Ladder'). Special features include an interview with 'Pillows & Prayers' 'originators' Iain Mcnay & Mike Always, plus a gallery featuring classic Cherry Red Records album artwork. 83 minutes. NTSC/All Code. 2003.
