The ‘lost’ fourth album by cult Manchester group The Durutti Column.
Originally recorded by Vini Reilly in Brussels in December 1983, the 14 track album features several key Durutti works including College, A Room in Southport and - best of all - Duet.
Recorded with Tuxedomoon viola player, Blaine L. Reininger, this poignant instrumental proved - ironically – to be the downfall of the album, after Factory founder (and Durutti manager) Tony Wilson insisted that Duet form the basis of an entire neo-classical album. As a result, Duet became Without Mercy in 1984, and Short Stories for Pauline was shelved.
Other guest musicians on the album include drummer Alain Lefebvre, harpist Anne van den Troost and sax player Eric Sleichim.
