Interpreters Volume 1 - Tiny Children (1998)

Tiny Children was the first Julian Cope tribute album. We started collecting songs for a tribute tape back in 1994. Over the next few years, during which CD burners became affordable, we gradually accumulated enough songs to fill a CD, which I assembled and distributed in 1998. I think we ended up sending out about 30 CDs, mostly to contributors. Tiny Children's release seemed to inspire fans to send in more songs, because it took less than a year to collect enough songs to complete the sequel, Second Heads.

Of all the "Cope" CDs, this is probably the one I've heard the most (partly because I previewed each CD before mailing it). I've never gotten tired of listening to it, and prefer it to any other tribute project I've heard. The credit goes to the contributors and (of course) Cope, for writing and performing such inspiring songs.

I plan to move the cover art to a separate page so that it's easy to print for CDR labels.
