“Oh My Lover” by PJ Harvey

PJ Harvey wrote "Oh My Lover" alone, words and music, and it sits on Dry, the debut album Too Pure released in March 1992. Like everything else on the record it was cut close to home, at The Icehouse in Yeovil, England, and played by the trio that bore her name, with Harvey producing alongside Rob Ellis and Head, who engineered it too.

Dry crossed to America on Indigo Records later that year, and early buyers got a bonus: the first 5000 copies on vinyl and the first 1000 on CD carried the songs in demo form. Those rough drafts finally got a record of their own in 2020, when the 11-track Dry – Demos came out on vinyl as the album was reissued.
