''Marjory Razorblade'' is a double-LP by artist Kevin Coyne and was one of the earliest releases on Virgin Records, which had launched four months earlier in 1973. The double album includes the track Marlene, which was issued as a single, and Eastbourne Ladies, which was featured among the selection of tracks played by John Lydon aka Johnny Rotten at the height of the Sex Pistols notoriety on the Capital Radio show A Punk & His Music, broadcast in London in summer 1977. The gatefold album sleeve was designed by prominent graphic artist Barney Bubbles utilising photographs of Coyne by Phil Franks; Bubbles also designed the distinctive logo carrying the album title and credit, though was content not to receive a credit.〔Reasons To Be Cheerful: The Life & Work Of Barney Bubbles, Paul Gorman (Adelita 2008) ISBN 978-0-9552017-3-8〕 In 1998 Virgin's financial director Ken Berry recalled that on his first day at the company's west London offices he was presented with artist royalty statements scrawled on the back of Bubbles' invoice for the Marjory Razorblade design. Reviewing the album for the BBC in 2010, Mike Diver described the album as "a synthesis of individual ability into one effective, enchanting end product ".〔("Kevin Coyne, Marjory Razorblade, Review: A trove of largely forgotten delights ready for rediscovery", by Mike Diver, 2010-01-15, at bbc.co.uk )〕 ==Track listing== All tracks composed by Kevin Coyne except where indicated. ;Side 1 # "Marjory Razorblade" # "Marlene" # "Talking to No One" # "Eastbourne Ladies" # "Old Soldier" ;Side 2 # # "Nasty" # "Lonesome Valley" (A.
