Gentlemen is the fourth studio album by American alternative rock band The Afghan Whigs. It was released in October 1993 on Elektra Records/Sub Pop in America and Blast First in England, and was produced by Greg Dulli.

Gentlemen was remastered and reissued on October 28, 2014, in celebration of the album's 21st anniversary.

33⅓ Book

In 2008, writer Bob Gendron published a critical and scholarly exploration of The Afghan Whigs' Gentlemen as part of the 33⅓ music book series exploring influential albums from pop history.[11][12] Gendron's book included extensive interviews with band members and others within Afghan Whigs' circle regarding the creation and impact of Gentlemen.[13]

Artwork

The album cover was inspired by Nan and Brian in Bed, New York City by Nan Goldin.[14][15] In his book about Gentlemen, Gendron describes how Linda Ronstadt was allegedly furious over the album's cover.[16]
