Cornershop will reissue their classic 2009  'Judy Sucks A Lemon For Breakfast' album on Feb 26th, 2027, both as a numbered DINKED Limited Edition of 500 on 'St Clement's Transparent Lemon' colour vinyl with exclusive Sticker Sheet and Cocktail print  as well as  a x500 limited pressing on 'Waltham Abbey Transparent Orange' colour vinyl.

The album has been remastered at Third Man Mastering in Detroit, with lacquers cut at Abbey Road by Alex Wharton.

The vinyl edition of this album was originally released as a small run of double albums housed in a poster bag in a poly bag with no card sleeve. This new reissue sees the double album housed in a Gatefold Sleeve for the first time, with the track order altered and a track title change made compared to the original pressing in 2009.

Cornershop's 2009 album 'Judy Sucks A Lemon For Breakfast' is another longplayer of inspiration and choice from the group. Oshira Matagosi of the Japanese X-Reflex magazine said upon it's release in 2009  "its the best album this decade since their last album this decade" & that's not a bad way to start off the century. On that note, Rob Da Bank, Radio 1 described it at the time as "encompassing the best of 40 years of music into one album."

Likewise "Solid Gold Sounds - Solid Gold Value, the best 30 years of your record collection," asserted Nusrat Durrani, of MTV America.

They're back again, and Cornershop have lost none of what the first eleven call 'form.' Bringing up their kids may have renewed their interest in simple upbeat music and algebra, but they could have waited another 7 years, the album would still be fresh.

Track by track…

1. The Roll Off Characteristics (Of History In The Making)

This anti-war, pro-people song states "War ain't nothing but technical plip-plop." Rough Trade Shop state "it has all the markings of classic Cornershop."

2. Soul School

As all around us breaks up, & time like "ice cream, is running down the cone," music & a good grounding of it gets us through. Parallel thirds over a strong steady beat.

3. Half Brick

This funk is a few blocks long.

4. Judy Sucks A Lemon For Breakfast

The title track gives you a day in the life of Judy & her deejay partner Jo-Jo, whilst "All the children (in Gregory Park) sip on the single grain."

5. The Phantom Wog

A commemoration to The Southall Riots.

6. Free Love

Sounds your eyes can follow. This psychedelic trip comes to you in a tidy package - the original is 56minutes in duration. Cornershop's engineer is still insisting it should have been the first single release from the album!
