Dillinger - Cocaine [Charly, 1983]: notation


This album is listed as a main album on AllMusic and receives some good star ratings, but it appears to be a compilation re-released many times throughout the years with different track counts, titles and covers. It almost seems like the conflated fictitious self-image of a narcotics-addled discography. Given all the smoke and the title track, I presume Dillinger is no stranger to freebasing. The title track appears to be a re-recording. The original issue in 1982/1983 has 9 or 10 tracks, only two of which (other than the title track) are on Ultimate Collection and The Prime of Dillinger. Update: I actually found this on Spotify and will give it some plays to see what it is. For some reason, it doesn't turn up in his artist folder, but it's on Spotify and can be found in other ways. Weird.
