"Sweet Jane (With Affection)" does what the title hints: Two Nice Girls splice Lou Reed's "Sweet Jane", the Velvet Underground song, together with Joan Armatrading's "Love and Affection", a neat bit of surgery on two very different songs. It sits on 2 Nice Girls, the band's self-titled debut, which came out on Rough Trade in 1989.
Elsewhere on that album, "I Spent My Last $10 (On Birth Control & Beer)" brought the group a taste of commercial success, and when the record returned in a 2007 reissue the Austin Chronicle gave it 4 stars.
