Garlands

• CADC211 (cassette) and CAD211CD (CD) featured additional Peel Session tracks “Dear Heart,” “Hearsay Please,” “Hazel,” and “Blind Dumb Deaf,” as well as previously unreleased tracks “Speak No Evil” and “Perhaps Some Other Aeon.”
• Additional Peel Session vocals on “Dear Heart” and “Hazel” by Cinder, credited as ‘Gordon Sharp’, of Cindytalk and This Mortal Coil.
• Lyrics from “But I’m Not,” “Shallow then Halo,” “Garlands,” and “Grail Overfloweth” are printed on the inner sleeve of the vinyl release.
• “Speak No Evil” and “Perhaps Some Other Aeon” were originally intended as a single and b-side, but were shelved in favor of the full album.
• The bonus Peel Session tracks on the original compact disc and audio cassette releases have the songs “Hearsay Please” and “Hazel” listed out of order.
• A remixed version of “Wax and Wane” is available on the 1985 release The Pink Opaque.
• Peel Session recordings were later released as part of BBC Sessions, in 1999. “Dear Heart” and “Hearsay Please” have never been released as studio recordings.
• “Wax and Wane” was performed during the 1996 Milk & Kisses Tour, remixed live by Mark Clifford.
• A remastered version of “Blind Dumb Deaf” appears on the 2000 compilation Stars and Topsoil.
• Garlands was digitally remastered and re-released by 4AD in 2003. The artwork for the first pressing of the remaster incorrectly labels the track “Blood Bitch” as “Blood Bath.” It is a typographical error that was subsequently corrected.
• Voted #59 of “Scotland’s 100 Best Rock and Pop Albums” in 2003.
• The vinyl pressing was re-released 4AD in 2010 as part of a special remastered 180g box set.
