About This Item
Henry's Dream is the seventh album released by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, in April 1992. This album remains a big favourite amongst Bad Seeds fans, although Nick Cave himself was reportedly unhappy with the production by David Briggs. Briggs preferred a Inchlive-in-the-studioInch method he had used with Neil Young. This led to Cave and Mick Harvey re-mixing the album, and ultimately to the Live Seeds recordings, as Cave wanted the songs Inchdone justiceInch. - It was the first album to feature long-standing members Martyn P. Casey (bass) and Conway Savage (piano, organ), both Australian. The latter is a singer-songwriter in his own right and has contributed distinctive backing vocals to a handful of Bad Seeds songs; here he and Cave deliver a rousing duet in the chorus of 'When I First Came to Town'. The album is considered by some to have a vague InchconceptInch, i.e. song narratives overlapping and/or sharing characters. Album Tracks 1. Papa Won't You Leave, Henry (2010 Remastered Version) 2.
