Pills And Soap UK 7" single front sleeve.jpg

Pills And Soap single
The Imposter

Pills And Soap (3:39)
Pills And Soap (extended version) (4:05)

1983-05-27; 7"; Demon IMP 001 (UK, no ps)

EC wanted this single out fast, before the general election, while F-Beat was undergoing a change of distribution. For this he formed a new label and issued it as "The Imposter". Originally, the single was only going to be available for less than a week, and planned to be deleted on the eve of the general election. The first pressing was of only 15,000 copies, but finally a total of 160,000 copies were pressed.
This song was slightly remixed for the album.
In the extended version the chorus "Give me the needle/Give me the rope..." is sung twice just before the "Four and twenty crowbars..." verse. This is done by splicing in the third chorus of the regular version.
Reached #16 in UK charts.
