Product Details
Originally released in 1979, *Labour of Lust* gave Lowe his biggest commercial moment, with "Cruel to Be Kind" becoming a genuine pop hit on both sides of the Atlantic. The album captures him at peak sharpness, channeling the same wit and melodic economy he brought to production work for Elvis Costello, Graham Parker, and The Damned into a set of songs that wore their influences lightly but wore them well.
As the bassist and primary songwriter for Brinsley Schwarz, Nick Lowe was one of the catalysts of the pub rock phenomenon in the early 1970s.
