Wappinschaw is the 1995 album from Cindytalk released by Touched Recordings. "The first time ever..." is a cover of a Ewan MacColl song. "Wheesht" includes a reading by Alasdair Gray from Lanark. "Traumlose Nächte" means "Dreamless Nights". On the CD, "Muster" (from the Prince Of Lies 7") is appended to "Hush" after about five minutes of silence. "Prince Of Lies" itself differs from the version on the 7". "Empty Hand" is shorter than the versions on Secrets And Falling and the Sound From Hands compilation.The cover art for "Wappinschaw" was a collaboration between Gordon Sharp and London-based photographer Steve Gullick.
