"It sounds so sweet: Reilly's shimmering guitar spinning merry cartwheels behind Eley Rudge's angelic Harriet Wheeler warble, or basking lazily in pools of ambient calm. It's a smooth as porcelain, as mannered as a lily pond and as forgettable as your last breath."

Limited edition double CDR promo, 25 copies only, featuring "Time Was Gigantic...When We Were Kids" together with "Reissued Experiments" (titled "Experiments by Vini" on the label), a selection of some of the rare and previously unreleased material issued as extra tracks on the second phase of Durutti Column reissues (Factory Once). The "FACDR 2.41" number does not appear on disc 1, only on disc 2. Instead, disc 1 has the London/Factory Too '558 330-2' "Time Was Gigantic..." designation. Both discs have a "Town House Post Production" over-title. All copies signed, hand numbered and assembled by Vini himself, w/"Vini Reilly" plectrum. (Plectrum is either brown "tortoise shell" or white; both versions with gold foil-stamped lettering.) Thanks to Andrea Bianco for imagery.
