Previously unreleased Television Personalities LP recorded in 1990, lovingly restored and remastered from the original tape recordings by Fire Records and Jowe Head. Includes previously about Felt and The Lemonheads and live classic 'Love Is A Four Letter Word' amongst others

“Over the course of a few weeks, we had amassed fifteen tracks, some of which ended up being re-recorded with very different arrangements on Closer to God. The intention was to finish and release these tracks at some point, and that time has finally arrived” Jowe Head

'If You Fly Too High' namedrops Alan McGee, who was a great fan of the TVPs and openly admits that he emulated Dan Treacy's style of music, and influenced his decision ro run both a mod-psychedelic club, The Living Room, and to start his legendary label, Creation Records
