The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: So, this is one of those odd one of a kind albums, where the A-Side has one song, and the B-Side has more – yes I know it’s an EP. Seems Images in Vogue liking doing this. The A-Side opens and closes with the song “Rescue Me”... Read More »
