Boys For Pele
Boys For Pele was released on January 22nd in the UK, January 23rd in the US and February 25th in Japan. The album reached number 1 in the UK and number 2 in the US. The first single, Caught A Lite Sneeze preceded the album by three weeks. Boys For Pele was the first album that Tori produced herself. Principal recording was done in a church in County Wicklow, Ireland and in a rented house in County Cork, Ireland. The remainder was recorded in New Orleans, Louisiana.
Later pressings of the album removed In The Springtime of his Voodoo and included Profesional Widow (Armand’s Star Trunk Funkin’ Mix). The original pressing included the normal cut of Talula.
