Gravy Deco (The Complete Groovy Decay/Decoy Sessions) is an album by Robyn Hitchcock, issued by Rhino Records during a spell of intense re-issuing of his work in the mid-1990s. The album's material had surfaced in the early 1980s, initially as Groovy Decay, and then later, substantially remixed, as Groovy Decoy.
Gravy Deco can therefore be seen as a compilation, bringing together all versions of all tracks on a single CD. Due to its nature, there are two different versions of several titles, and a couple of additional 'bonus' numbers sourced from old singles recorded at around the same time.
