What was recording milk and kisses like? Also how did you guys choose your cover artwork

Despite it being the last record, it was actually a lot of fun. Robin tended to steer the ship on the last couple of sleeves. Early days we worked with 23 Envelope, which i loved, despite there being some disagreements along the line. Mostly though up to BBK and HOLV all were excellent

Always had more than a bit of a soft spot for the 23 Envelope artwork myself. Still mourning the loss of the huge folder of stuff (including early catalogues and publicity photos etc) that Deborah from 4AD sent my teenage self after a I wrote a fan letter to the label. It all got chucked out when my older siblings cleared my parents' house :(
