[Both tracks of the WEA 45 can also be found on the compilation A Splash Of Colour]
If you're interested in the 80's Psychedelic revival, pop over to you tube & watch the documentary groovy movie
As a (sort of) incentive there is footage of The Regal in Kensington Market which was one of the 3 places where this 45 was available to purchase.(not so) co-incidentally one of the others (Sweet Charity, Kensington Market again) was owned by Anne-Marie Khachik.
Thank you. I always look forward to your posts
ReplyDeleteGreat song, both versions. At some point I'll pick up copies of both when the price/condition is right. The last time I was tempted there was no flyer with 'Baby Dancing' so passed on it. I maybe slightly prefer the WEA 45 but 'Baby Dancing' is a better song title.
ReplyDeleteMy friend from school had that comp LP back in the day so heard it quite a few times that winter at his house alongside my mix tapes of UK Decay, Bauhaus etc. The High Tide were a stand out alongside The Times and The Barracudas. In fact I should look out for that LP too.
