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:
“Holland is a dream, Monsieur, a dream of gold and smoke—smokier by day, more gilded by night. And night and day that dream is peopled with Lohengrins like these, dreamily riding their black bicycles with high handle-bars, funereal swans constantly drifting throughout the whole country, around the seas, along the canals.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“There was a little girl, she had a little curl
Right in the middle of her forehead;
And when she was good, she was very, very good,
And when she was bad, she was horrid.”
—Mother Goose (fl. 17th–18th century. There Was a Little Girl (attributed to Mother Goose)
