Deluxe 2CD edition of Terry Hall's second solo album presented in 7-inch gatefold packaging, and featuring the singles 'Ballad of a Landlord' and 'I Saw the Light' and an alternate sleeve. New liner notes by journalist Pete Paphides include reflections from Damon Albarn, Ian Broudie and Stephen Duffy. Originally released in 1997 on the Southsea Bubble Company label, Terry Hall's 'Laugh' followed his acclaimed debut with a blend of wit, melancholy, and melody that marked him as one of Britain's most distinctive voices. Much of 'Laugh' was co-written with former Smiths guitarist Craig Gannon, with further collaborations from a stellar cast including Stephen Duffy, Sean O'Hagan (The High Llamas), and Damon Albarn of Blur - who had previously worked with Hall on his 1995 'Rainbows' EP. The album was produced by Hall himself, alongside Gannon and Cenzo Townshend, and has since gained cult status for its sharp songwriting and intimate, understated arrangements. This special edition expands 'Laugh' across two discs: Disc One: The original studio album, newly mastered by Phil Kinrade at AIR Studios. Disc Two: B-sides, live recordings, and acoustic versions.
