Nurse With Wound - The Sylvie And Babs High-Thigh Companion LP

"The Sylvie and Babs Hi-Fi Companion" is an album by Nurse With Wound.

In his book "England's Hidden Reverse", David Keenan describes the album as "some light relief in the early Nurse catalogue". Steven Stapleton told Keenan: "I wanted to make a record that was stolen from other people's records". Gary Levermore of Third Mind Records recalled to Keenan that Stapleton was "desperate to get his hands on a copy of Roger Miller's "King Of The Road" in order to incorporate it into the forthcoming record".

Although largely collaged from easy listening records Stapleton acquired in the late-1970s and early-1980s, the album boasted a large cast list of over 40 people. John Balance is one of those who is credited but he did not actually contribute. As Stapleton explained to Keenan: "I'd just finished this album with about 40 people on it. He said "Can I be on it?". I said, "It's finished". He said, "I know but can you give me a credit anyway?", I said "Alright then". That was my first meeting with Balance".
