THE SLITS - Y - Bootleg Retrospective
Brief Album History:
The Slits recorded this album prior to their official debut, the amazing punky reggae party Cut. An advance from Island Records would allow them to spend time in the studio and to hire producer dub Dennis Bovell), so rather than jeopardize the relationship with Island they handed the masters off to their friends the Pop Group to release on their Y Records on the condition that it be released as a bootleg. It came in a plain white sleeve with the “Y” label visible but no clear title so it has come to be known as Y, Y3LP (the catalog number), Official Bootleg or even Once Upon a Time in a Living Room or A Boring Life (the last title probably dreamed up by Greil Marcus). It’s not like anything else they released – it shows the raw energy of their live shows, but it also has the experimental spirit they would show on their later albums (although without a producer to polish it up pretty). “Face Place” and “Or Was It?” showed up in more finished form on Return of the Giant Slits and a bit of “Bongos on the Lawn” is heard at the beginning of the video for “Instant Hit” from Cut.
Original UK 1st press, vinyl LP record on the Y record label from 1980.
