focus on his family. Paul Webb rejoined Lee Harris, and the two went on to form the band .O.rang, who recorded several albums in the 1990s, while Tim Friese-Greene started recording under the name Heligoland. Mark Hollis effectively left the music industry, but in 1998 released his unexpected self-titled solo début Mark Hollis, which was much in keeping with the post-rock sound of Spirit of Eden and Laughing Stock, finding inspiration not in the popular music of the day, but rather in 20th-century classical music and jazz from the late fifties and sixties. He officially retired from the music industry shortly afterwards. Track listing All compositions by Mark Hollis and Tim Friese-Greene. Most pressings of this album on CD have tracks 3 & 4 overlapping for about 20 seconds, resulting in respective run times of 9:26 and 7:01. The US Polydor version has no overlap, offering the full versions of both songs, although "New Grass" is about 6 seconds shorter on the US CD (done by cutting off the end of the fade-out, resulting in the time above). The US version of "Taphead" also features a faint 4-second instrumental fragment at the beginning not found on the UK CD.
