Randolph's Going Home
Shayne Carter & Peter Jefferies
Flying Nun Records are pleased to announce the first ever re-issue of the Shayne Carter and Peter Jefferies 1986 collaborative 7" - Randolph's Going Home.
Featuring two tracks written by Shayne Carter (Bored Games, Straitjacket Fits, Doublehappys) and Peter Jefferies (This Kind of Punishment, Nocturnal Projections), the A-Side was Carter's first recording following the sudden, tragic death of his Doublehappy's band mate and friend Wayne Elsey. "Randolph's Going Home" is a gentle, heartfelt nod from Carter to Elsey mixed with Peter Jefferies' clattering punk sound. His addition provides something that is both sonically quirky and strangely structured, that combined with the emotional sentiments have made this song so enduring. The b-side, "Hooked, Lined and Sunken," is equally haunting.
Limited to 1000 copies.
