Shag Tobacco

Shag Tobacco is the third solo album from Gavin Friday. Once again, Friday teamed up with musician Maurice "The Man" Seezer. Bono and The Edge contribute backing vocals on "Little Black Dress". "The Last Song I'll Ever Sing" was dedicated "in loving memory" of Scottish-Irish street performer Thom McGinty.

This album features a cover of T. Rex's "The Slider".

The second track, "Caruso", is Friday's tribute to Enrico Caruso, the Italian opera singer.

The third track, "Angel", was featured on the soundtrack of the 1996 film William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet.

Patrick McCabe wrote the album's liner notes.
