“Davy Henderson is a genius and the ‘Saint Jack’ album is him at his very best.” – Irvine Welsh, 2015

The Nectarine No.9’s ‘Saint Jack’ album is reissued by Forever Heavenly on CD, vinyl and download.

‘Saint Jack’ was originally released in 1995 by Postcard Records. The album is an unknown legend, the lifetime best from Edinburgh-born Nectarines frontman Davy Henderson, who also fronted the Scottish capital’s much-acclaimed Fire Engines, a key influence on bands including Franz Ferdinand and The Rapture.

The ‘Saint Jack’ album title comes from the 1979 film of the same name directed by Peter Bogdanovich, with Ben Gazzara as the titular pimp and fixer, stirring things up in the pleasure zones of Singapore.

The album was The Nectarine No.9’s second album – a rock album but one also laced with of Henderson’s brilliant pop melodicism. Musically and lyrically acute, this is an authoritative take on both pop-art and artrock.

This release includes nine bonus Peel Sessions recordings.

The LP format of ‘Salt Jack’ includes a digital download which also features all the bonus content.

The standalone digital download album features all content.
