Negative Theater
Negative Theater, a European-only CD, is the fifth solo album released by Ric Ocasek. Negative Theater was originally intended to be Ocasek's fourth solo effort, consisting of a double CD and a book of poetry. However, in North America, Reprise Records declined to release the CD in Ocasek's original form. Instead, the company took 7 tracks from Ocasek's project, and had him record 7 additional tracks with producer Mike Shipley. The resulting record was issued as Quick Change World in North America only. For European release, Negative Theater was issued as a 15-track CD. It included 7 tracks that were issued on Quick Change World, and 8 tracks that are exclusive to this album. Track listing
