Spinning Wheels - When the Music's Over (CD)

Release Date: 10/16/12

Selection of demos and 7' tracks from the early '90s UK indiepop scene / RIYL: Another Sunny Day, St. Christopher

This band existed briefly during the early '90s, and released a single 7' and a very scarce cassette on Teatime Records (which remains that way, at the band's request!). They were slated to do a follow-up single, but when the label ran out of money, the band ran out of steam. This disc collects the eight unreleased demos they recorded around this time, and tacks on the three 7' tracks for good measure. Though the band's leader, Dick Preece, found greater fame with the more elegant Lovejoy a decade later, this album recalls the days of pure and simple indiepop championed by Another Sunny Day or St. Christopher.
