    │release notes.

     this is the o.g. 1990 cd combining two lps tracks 1-10 are the lp
     "The Only Fun In Town" and tracks 11-12 are the unreleased debut lp
     "Sorry For Laughing"

     Josef K formed in Edinburgh in 1978 as TV Art. In 1979 the group
     began playing locally joining a thriving Edinburgh scene. In 1979
     they changed their name to Josef K and recorded an eight-song
     studio demo tape but the songs failed to generate much interest. A
     chance meeting with Orange Juice drummer Steven Daly lead to an
     alliance between the bands and they began playing out together.
     After Daly set up his own label, Absolute, Chance Meeting by Josef
     K became its first (and only) release. Then they signed to Orange
     Juice singer Edwyn Collins' Postcard Records. In 1980 they recorded
     their debut album, Sorry For Laughing, but at the last minute the
     release was cancelled. Years later, the band would claim that the
     mix was unsatisfactory and that it failed to represent their
     blistering live sound. Nine months later came the Only Fun In Town,
     on which they re-recorded much of the scrapped album. The band
     claimed they would make one or two albums before splitting up and
     they did.

     Paul Haig - Vocal & Guitar. Went on to form Rhythm of Life.
     David Weddell - Bass .Played with Happy Family and Heyday.
     Ronnie Torrance - Drums.Played with Happy Family and Heyday.
     Malcolm Ross - Guitar & Piano. Played with Orange Juice, Aztec
     Camera

     The scrapped debut album Sorry For Laughing has been released on CD
     along with Only Fun In Town
