One of the greatest ever bands. Their final Peel session might be the best session ever … well, it is to me! Playing #PrestonPopFest in a couple of weeks time too 👍

Saw them loads around the early stuff of the Tom Verlaine 12” and Tell ‘em we’re surfin EP. They absolutely ripped the arse out of live performances, with 3 guitarists. Never quite translated onto record, but truly beautiful songs…

Absolutely devoured it. Beautifully written. I almost smelt the, er, various fragrances of southern Italy!

My only time seeing bf was at Heywood Civic Hall, supporting The 3 Johns (a miners benefit?)

Beautifully written (though it explained & exacerbated my anxiety about taking (my) kids on holiday 😂). The extract from substack about Owen Williams (The Tubs) mum was incredibly emotive x
