Just another band that rarely gets mentioned that I was listening to this morning. Do they have any fans here?

"to be hung drawn and quartered would be uncomfortable and awkward..."

I seem to recall that being a minor hit on WBRU in '89 or so. I think I have that record, I should pull it out, it was a decent tune.

Likewise, I have it as well, but haven't pulled it out since 1990 I bet. There was a video for "To be with you" I think, back in the 120 Minutes days.

They had vids for "Be With You" and "Wrecker of Engines" at least. I have their first album (_Fascinatin' Vacation_, I think?) on cassette--it's a fair to middling pop record; reminds me of the Go-Betweens for some reason. "To Be With You" is brilliant, notably for the great opening lyrics that Otter quotes. Good cover of "A Horse With No Name."
