"Lazy Line Painter Jane" was Belle & Sebastian's second EP, released in 1997 on Jeepster Records. The title track features guest vocalist Monica Queen and was recorded in a church hall. "A Century of Elvis" features bassist Stuart David reading out a story he had written, over music by the band. The backing music from that track was later used on "A Century of Fakers" from "3.. 6.. 9 Seconds of Light". The front cover features Thea Martin holding "Reason and Reality: The Relationship Between Science and Theology" by John Polkinghorne. The EP was later re-packaged as part of the "Lazy Line Painter Jane" box-set, and all four tracks were collected on the "Push Barman to Open Old Wounds" compilation. The EP narrowly missed out on a top 40 placing in the UK singles chart, reaching #41.
