Hollywood Nights B/W Featherweight Crown was the first release from Los Angeles band The Western Expanse. The band formed from the ashes (to put it poetically, for my own entertainment) of the emo band Emery. The band at one point also distributed a 5 track CD that contained re-recordings of the songs on the 7" with a different bassist and without the glockenspiel. Sadly I have no info on the CD other than knowledge of its existence and the tracks it had on it, as told me by Eric Feezell (the bassist on the 7"):
"It's the other versions of Hollywood Nights and Featherweight Crown where Chris sings up an octave, as well as Dirty Face and I think Asterisk and Lightning Scissors? Don't quote me on the last two but 99% sure Dirty Face is one of the five."
Download the 7" here.
P.S. If any of you Western Expanse fellas see this post and still have a copy of that CD please reach out to me!! I'd seriously appreciate it.
