Looks like this album is back in print! It's already been released overseas with two bonus tracks, with a domestic release coming out late September. Doesn't look like the domestic release will have the bonus tracks, though.
Incidentally, the two tracks on the album that were recorded live were done with Brinsley Schwartz. I never knew that!

I believe this album was from 1975, and marked the first time Dave Edmunds worked with Nick Lowe. He does a lot of old '50's and '60's tunes on this one, most with a Phil Spector "wall of sound" to it. If anyone is familiar with the Stiff Box Set, check out his version of "Jo Jo Gunne" on it, as well as "Maybe" by Jill Read. That will give you an idea as to the sound of this album.
