    The Cure's  classic 1979  debut album  remastered with  an addiotional
    extras CD of 20 period rarities. Enjoy!

    Maybe it was youthful exuberance or  perhaps it was the fact that  the
    band itself was not pulling  all the strings, Three Imaginary  Boys is
    not only a very  strong debut, but a  near oddity (it's an  admittedly
    "catchy" record) in the Cure catalog. More poppy and representative of
    the times it was made that  any other album during their long  career,
    Three Imaginary Boys is a  semi-detached bit of late-'70s English  pop
    -punk. Angular and lyrically abstract,  it's strong points are in  its
    utter simplicity. There are no dirges here, no long suites, just short
    bursts of energy and a rather strange cover of Hendrix's "Foxy  Lady."
    For some, this is the last  good Cure record, many fans of  this album
    being in no way prepared for the sparse emptiness and gloom that would
    be the  cornerstone of  future releases.  For the  most die-hard  Cure
    -head, however,  it's an  interesting sidenote,  hard to  place in the
    general flow of the band's  discography. Cure leader Robert Smith  has
    voiced  many times  over his  mixed feelings  about the  record,  most
    notably the cover  art (the three  "representative" appliances on  the
    cover,  the  lack  of  a  real track  listing  --  all  the  songs are
    represented with arty type pictures --  and in no real order) and  the
    production, which at times is admittedly a little muddy, but even that
    lends it a certain youthful charm. What the Cure would do next  wasn't
    entirely obvious  to the  listener of  this album,  but there are some
    definite hints.
