FFO
C86, Television Personalities, Shop Assistants, Wedding Present! 300
copies only!
Another July release
from Market Square Records that deserves to not slip through the net
is this absolute belter from Real Numbers. The A-side reminds of
those jaunty but sad songs from my own personal year zero when the
likes of The Pastels, The Wedding Present and the like were constants
on my turntable. Though it also sounds like, well you know, now!
The flip is a slower
though no less satisfying track, a dreamy floaty melody over a two
chord backing. Lo-fi and heartfelt. Apparently the band have been
around making records in their hometown of Minneapolis for quite some years but I'd not been hipped to
this groove until now. Another notch of credibility for Market
Square. If the vinyl is sold out don't forget today is a digital
world too. So suppost the label and have the music on your mobile,
mp3 player or ipod docking station. Hell, you couldn't do that in
1986!
300 copies only, housed
in Risograph fold-over sleeves.
