Playing with Fire
A carefully selected compilation of completely unreleased songs recorded former Swell Maps frontman's last two studio albums Treasure Island & The Truth Doesn't Matter. Nikki died suddenly after completing his last studio album The Truth Doesn't Ma-ter which featured some of the most confessional and openly sentimental songwriting of his long, labyrinthine solo career-- making this a natural companion piece. The robust performances and elaborate arrangements here do not sound like the work of someone who was ready to check out. A most fitting testament to the collision of boredom and bedlam that initially ignited Sudden's 30-year run, and that will continue to inspire future rock and roll renegades long after he's gone. Liner notes by right hand man John Barry. Booklet features unseen photos of Nikki from the period of these recordings.
