led me to this, for some reason
did either do anything else as good?
they did a great, or maybe simply enjoyably unlikely, cover version of Stranglers's "Toiler on the Sea", for a John Peel session, this was their pre-pop period i think....

members of it's immaterial were formerly in echt-New Wave group The Yachts, who i somehow never heard at the time. (and one of them went on to be in the Christians, am I right)
