Grinspoon’s 1999 ‘Easy’ and 2002 ‘New Detention’ albums have never on vinyl until now. Back then it was all about the CD so CD it was, complete with hidden tracks.
Pat Davern of Grinspoon tells Noise11.com, “When we were designing them for CD we actually did think about that. We actually thought about how they would work as a vinyl. We always thought that half-way through it was the beginning of side B. Hopefully they will work. We will probably do most of side A and a smattering of side b.
We were really into secret tracks with these records. On ‘Easy’ the secret track was six minutes and 66 seconds after the final song. On ‘New Detention’ we just left it a little while. But on the vinyl they come in straight away. There is no waiting around for the secret tracks, so you do get a bonus track and the records.
