Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Tender Prey (Vinyl)
'Tender Prey' was the fifth studio album from Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, originally released on 19th September 1988. The album was recorded during several sessions over the course of four months in West Berlin, where the band were based at the time, and London and was produced by Flood.
The album opens with "The Mercy Seat," which has been subsequently played at almost all of the band's live performances since 1988, and was later covered by one of Cave's biggest influences, Johnny Cash. "The Mercy Seat" was released as a single in May 1988 as a precursor to the album, and "Deanna" was released shortly after the album hit the streets.
Cave later admitted that the album, "was made at a difficult time in my life when things were spiralling out of control in a lot of areas."
Finally available on heavyweight 180gm vinyl again after many years, with vinyl transfer approval overseen by Mick Harvey, and cut at Abbey Road studios. This reissue edition, approved personally by Nick Cave, is finally available again on its original format.

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
