The Verve - No Come Down

Artist:

Verve (The)

London Suede (The) Smashing Pumpkins

Description:

NO COME DOWN is a compilation of assorted alternate takes, live performances, acoustic versions, and B-sides previously unavailable in the United States.
Since the Verve`s first release in the early-`90s, the band quickly amassed a large number of non-album B-sides in its UK homeland. In the U.S., few early Verve singles were released, so a B-sides/rarities compilation, NO COME DOWN, was issued in 1994.
While NO COME DOWN understandably doesn`t have the thematic cohesiveness of the band`s superb albums (A STORM IN HEAVEN, A NORTHERN SOUL, URBAN HYMNS), there are plenty of gems. Standouts include the album-opening title track, gorgeous acoustic versions of "Make It `til Monday" and "Butterfly," a "USA mix" of "Blue," plus a long and winding live version of the epic "Gravity Grave."
