IN 2016, THE BRISBANE LABEL, LCMR (LATE-CENTURY MODERN RECORDINGS) RELEASED THE 1979 MAXI-SINGLE BY THE LEFTOVERS ENTITLED 'CIGARETTES AND ALCOHOL'.
LCMR DETECTIVES TRACKED DOWN THE MASTER TAPE AND
THE RELEASE RIGHTS AND HAD THE 1/4 INCH SAFETY REEL RESTORED BY
AUSTRALIA'S FOREMOST MASTERING ENGINEER, DON BARTLEY TO MAKE THE LCMR SINGLE SOUND FAITHFUL TO THE ORIGINAL TAPE... AND THIS WAS ACHIEVED.
IT WAS RELEASED IN APRIL OF 2016 WITH THREE DIFFERENT COVERS OF 100 PRESSED OF EACH. THE FIRST COVER VERSION (RELEASED ON RECORD STORE DAY AUSTRALIA)SOLD IN A DAY. THE SECOND AND THIRD WERE RELEASED A WEEK LATER AND SOLD OUT WITHIN DAYS.
DUE TO OVERWHELMING DEMAND, AN ADDITIONAL 100 WERE PRESSED ON PURPLE WAX WITH THE THIRD COVER (A FACSIMILE OF ONE OF A SMALL HANDFUL OF COVERS MADE BY VOCALIST WARREN LAMOND AND FRIEND 'WEED') IN A NUMBERED EDITION.
IN THE COMING MONTHS, LCMR WILL RELEASE A LIVE LEFTOVERS 2LP SET AND THEY'VE SO FAR RELEASED TITLES BY ED KUEPPER, UPSETS AND SMALL WORLD EXPERIENCE.
