about

Double Vinyl & CD Reissued with Bonus Disc of original demos & new sleeve notes.

Originally released in 2002, Jesse Malin’s classic solo debut is to be reissued on 26th February as a limited run on double CD and Vinyl with new sleevenotes by The Gaslight Anthem’s Brian Fallon. The second disc adds 11 more tracks originally demoed for the record at Electric Lady studios, only 4 of which made it to the final version – which gives an insight into the quantity and quality of material to hand at the time.

I love this entire album. Every track is a winner. The album is well mixed. It sounds great on my computer's stereo sound system. It is almost as good as the sound quality of my vinyl record sound system. And Jesse's voice has never sounded more powerful and confident. Definitely a Five-Star album. dansp

Glitter in the Gutter
by Jesse Malin

supported by 7 fans who also own “The Fine Art Of Self Destruction”

This album soundtracked the summer of 2007 for me as I road the subway around the 5 boroughs, hoofed it through Lower Manhattan at night and then across many a bleary and otherwise morning watching the sun come up in Washington Square Park. A true New York City album of universal survival, grit and grace, then and now. Real glad for this reissue. Cheers mates, Gutters do Glitter… robertjoseph31
