We put them on once around the time of Looking for Lewis and Clarke (October 16th 1985), which coincidentally is the only record of theirs I own (double 7" version). Not really my thing, I prefered Green on Red, Dream Syndicate and a few others from that "Paisley Underground" Scene but they seemed like a nice bunch of guys.and it's now starting to happen that people from bands in the era I musically grew up in are starting to pop off this mortal coil which makes me a little sad in itself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still not a patch on their 65-75 influences, but bless them, they tried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to listen to it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
