Relationships within the band had frayed, ultimately leading to its break-up, but not before more hits were notched. “Decline And Fall” peaked at #15 on the U.S. Billboard Modern Rock chart and, like “Siamese Twist” from Long Live The New Flesh before it, garnered college radio play. The John Hughes film association continued with Plastic Fantastic tracks “Slide” and “Slowdown,” both appearing in the 1989 John Candy comedy Uncle Buck. If that wasn’t enough, “Every Little Word” hit #14 on the U.S. Dance chart and “Time And Space” #9 on the U.S. Alternative chart. As the band splintered, new members joined to meet the obligations for a support slot on the Public Image Ltd. American tour. This expanded edition of Plastic Fantastic is remastered from the original tapes and includes the bonus track “Bloodshot Moon.” Disc Two contains the full recording of the band’s performance at Club Malibu in Long Island, NY on November 26, 1989. Eight of the 15 songs from this live show have never been issued before. Joe Marchese of The Second Disc interviewed band members for the liner notes. Plastic Fantastic finally gets the reissue it deserves and is dedicated to the memory of the band’s late singer/guitarist Nick Marsh.
