Galore is the third studio album by the British band The Primitives, first released in Europe in January 1992. It was not released in the UK until 13 April 1992.[1] [2] It was the final album recorded by the group in their first existence, as they disbanded shortly after this release. They would not record again until 2010, and would not release another album until 2012's Echoes and Rhymes.
Galore was reissued in an expanded double-CD edition by Cherry Red Records in January 2015.
In a retrospective review, Jake Kennedy of Record Collector said he would "love to pronounce it the overlooked gem" of the band's career "but, in truth, it's muddled by a mix of producers". He added that it is unsuccessful in "shak[ing] off the baggage and tiredness that originally signposted it as an endpoint" in their career.
