Winter Comes Home is a 1982 live album credited to both David Thomas and his Legs and to 'David Thomas, Lindsay Cooper, Chris Cutler', on which Thomas was supported by Chris Cutler and Lindsay Cooper. Trouser Press reports that the album "mixes intellectual stand-up comedy with winning performances".[1] The album did not appear in the 1997 anthology Monster, and has not been released on CD. Thomas has pronounced the album to have been officially "disappeared", writing "BTW Winter Comes Home does not exist. According to the Authorized View, it never did exist and, so, it never will exist. Those who claim to own copies are troublemakers. Report them to the Grocery Police."[2]
