This is Neil's "blues" album.

During the period Neil worked with the Blue Notes, they also recorded live material for a planned live album called Blue Note Cafe. Two songs were released on Lucky Thirteen and there is a rumor that some of this material will be released on Neil's upcoming compilation box set.

Neil wrote and performed several songs that have remained unreleased to this day during the Blue Notes period... most notable are the unreleased 12 minute epic "Ordinary People" (later released on his 2007 album "Chrome Dreams II") and the 20 minute, 12 verse "Sixty To Zero" (a seven minute snippet of which was released as "Crime In The City" on Freedom).

Also of note is the hilarious Julian Temple-directed video for "This Note's For You", which was banned by MTV due to its parodies of some of the most popular advertising campaigns of the day. Eventually, MTV relented, and the video went on to win "Best Video" at the 1988 MTV Video Awards.
