Gold Mother is the third studio album from English band James, originally released June 1990. The album was recorded for Rough Trade Records, but James asked to be released from their contract with them and moved to Fontana. After the success of a Flood Mix of "Come Home" and the non-album singles "Lose Control" and "Sit Down", the album was re-released almost a year later to include these tracks, replacing other tracks on the album. It was recently re-released again, this time with all of the original tracks in addition to "Lose Control" and "Sit Down".
Famous quotes containing the words gold and/or mother:
“And the Goddess?
She stands
between the worlds.
She is ivory,
her breast bare, her bare arms
braceleted with gold snakes.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“And mother almost always sighs,
When father carves the duck.
Then all of us prepare to rise,
And hold our bibs before our eyes,
And be prepared for some surprise,
When father carves the duck.”
—Ernest Vincent Wright Wotton (1872–1939)
