Title: Leave the Straight Life Behind
Artist: Bob
Label: 3 Loop Music
Product Type: COMPACT DISCS
UPC: 5013929351844
Genre: Alternative Rock

Digitally re-mastered and expanded two CD edition of this 1991 album from the British Indie band including bonus tracks. Legend has it that a chance meeting with John Peel in the Rough Trade record shop set Bob on the road to becoming a true Indie favorite in the late '80s and early '90s, with Peel championing the band throughout their career. Starting life in 1986, the band released a series of acclaimed singles, and with each single release, they toured and promised an album. Eventually they got enough money together to release LEAVE THE STRAIGHT LIFE BEHIND on their own House of Teeth label in 1991. The album met with rave reviews but due to the collapse of Rough Trade Distribution it was frustratingly difficult to find. Now available again for the first time in many years, the album has been expanded with a second disc including all four of their Radio 1 sessions, three for John Peel and one for Simon Mayo.
