Head over to the official Mansun Facebook Page or MOLS to see the cracking new video for Taxlo$$ taken from the forthcoming box set ‘Closed For Business’
Happy 22nd Anniversary nine EP!
One of my favourite Mansun EP’s…
Released August 25th 1998 it contained lead track ‘Being A Girl (Part One) as well six additional quality tracks spread over the three commercial formats.
A promo only 7″ single and a promo CD of ‘Railings’ are also sought -after collectables by fans.
‘Being A Girl’ was edited down to a short but gutsy two minutes from the eight minute album opus and was hence released as Part One.
The band did not appear in the official video although a certain ‘Danny Dyer’ made his ‘acting’ debut!
