''Wreckless Eric'' which was Wreckless Eric's debut album, was released on 1 June 1978. It reached number 46 on the UK Albums Chart. A 10" version of the LP was issued on both brown and purple vinyl in the UK. These versions omitted the tracks "Whole Wide World" and "Telephoning Home." The full-length version of the LP was also issued on green vinyl in Germany. It was reissued on CD for a limited time in 1994 by Disky Communications and included three bonus tracks: the "Whole Wide World" single B-side "Semaphore Signals" and two versions of Devo's "Be Stiff," a song that many artists on the Stiff Records label had covered as a promotional vehicle. According to Eric's website, most versions of this LP feature speeded-up versions of the tracks in which the songs are a semitone higher than recorded. 〔()〕 Some of these versions have also appeared on various compilations throughout the years. In a 1995 interview with Peter Doggett (found on the limited edition Rykodisc release ''An Overview Disc''), former Stiff Records label-mate Elvis Costello mentions that, due to their unusual vocal styles, Stiff had originally envisioned a split LP between himself and Eric, with each artist taking one side of the record. ==Track listing== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wreckless Eric (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
