Pulp - This Is Hardcore Deluxe

A different kind of album from 'Different Class' it is still home to some of Pulp's finest work, including the brilliant, slow-burning 'Help the Aged', the emotional 'A Little Soul' and the epic 'This Is Hardcore', one of the very finest tracks in their considerable canon. 'This Is Hardcore' is an overlooked classic that is ripe for rediscovery. This Deluxe Edition is a 2CD set. The first disc is the original album in its full glory, featuring the the hit singles 'Help The Aged', 'This Is Hardcore' and 'A Little Soul'. The second disc of bonus material has been personally chosen by Jarvis Cocker, featuring b-sides, previously unreleased versions of 'Cocaine Socialism' and 'Tomorrow Never Dies' alongside 6 more previously unreleased demos. This luxuriously packaged set comes complete with a 32 page booklet featuring previously unseen photos from the album sessions and sleevenotes written by Cocker.(GS)
