Mossy Liquor is the title of a vinylLP released by Robyn Hitchcock in 1996. The album preceded the release of the Moss Elixir CD by a few weeks, and half of it was made up of demos or alternative versions of the Moss Elixir material.
Opening with a Swedish language rendition of "Alright, Yeah", side one also features four all new tracks, including the instrumental "Shuffling over the Flagstones", the casual "Cool Bug Rumble", and two particularly strong songs in "Wide Open Star" and "Each of Her Silver Wands", the latter remade several years later by a reunited Soft Boys line up.
The rest of the new material includes "As Lemons Chop" and the archaeologicalcomedy "Trilobite", rounded off with a previously unheard and untitled guitar instrumental acting as an extended coda to the demo version of "Heliotrope".
The sleeve was created by switching the front and back images from Moss Elixir.
Head cheese or brawn is a cold cut terrine or meat jelly that originated in Europe, perhaps ancient Germania. It is made with flesh from the head of a calf or pig, typically set in aspic, and usually eaten cold, at room temperature, or in a sandwich. Despite its name, the dish is not a cheese and contains no dairy products. The parts of the head used vary, and may include the tongue but do not commonly include the brain, eyes or ears. Trimmings from more commonly eaten cuts of pork and veal are often used, and sometimes the feet and heart, with gelatin added as a binder.
