about

A collection of 4 songs (one previously unreleased) that were recorded back in 1988 and formed the demo tape that was sent out to get our first deal with Medium Cool - one indie-label rejected it as 'too professional sounding'! The tracks have been recovered from 16 track tape + remixed so that "Where Do You Go?" could appear on the Cherry Red C88 compilation - but we thought, why not let the others out there too? It's interesting to hear how great Wendy's vocals sound up in the mix too, much stronger than on the Landslide single version.
