Tarnation's first album was on nufsed records.  The album is called "I'll Give
You Something to Cry About".  A few of the songs on Gentle Creatures are from
that album--like "Game of Broken Hearts".  Some other songs are different like
"Big O Motel".  Even the original version of "Christine" is from that album.
About half the songs are completely new like "The Ring".  There is more of an
emphasis on duets between Lincoln and Paula.  Good album if you can find it.
I accidently found it at an indie store in '95 for $10.  Many of these stores
won't even know who Tarnation is and will have them in cut out bins etc.  I
know that 1000 vinyl were made, and 1000 cds were made.  So they are out there
somewhere.  GEMM used to have a copy for $15.  I know that Bloodshot Records
used to want to rerelease the album but didn't know how to contact nufsed.
Maybe one day it will have a rerelease if the clamor is great.
