Bought the 7"s, 10", promo vinyls, cd singles... really hoped they would become a big band. I think they stopped too soon.Steve Lnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8499949614093219266.post-76104556565180070382018-12-28T19:43:39.461+00:002018-12-28T19:43:39.461+00:00Saw the lead singer in the pub last night in Harlo...Saw the lead singer in the pub last night in Harlow.

"strawberries & cream" was NOT their debut single. that honor goes to the "butterfly" 7 inch (b/w "shame on jane") in 1995. still have my copy which i bought at a long gone record store in california. the handwritten sticker on it says "london synth band influenced by soft cell, erasure, pulp, smiths, pixies!" ha!<br /><br />their second single appeared in 1996 - that was "i've told you before," which was backed with "my mistake," "where's your grandma?" and "let's talk about the weather" on CD.<br /><br />so "strawberries & cream" was actually their last single (as far as i know!). <br /><br />would love to know where they went? i thought they were great.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8499949614093219266.post-76229348312166983772010-04-22T08:24:58.222+01:002010-04-22T08:24:58.222+01:00These guys were great.
