14.10.2008 Name: Dave Shindler Comments: Just come across this site almost by accident. I was playing singles from my ageing vinyl collection to my kids recently and 'Good Technology' went down really well! My 16 year old daughter is a talented guitarist just starting out in the pubs and clubs of Leeds (currently busking outside Borders as I tap). So, thought I'd bung you into Google and lo and behold. I went to Hull Uni at the same time as Hallam and shared a house in De Grey St with Simon Braunholtz & Johnny Higgins (Matt's bruv??). Thanx for the memories! Will seek out the compilation. |

I remember when the Smiths played there where people fainting and being carried away by the bouncers. I thought in my booze,and smoked addled young mind that this is what Beatlemania could have been like. |

Like others who have commented on Amazon I never bought the album, so I have ordered it from the Lemon thing. Hopefully it will turn up. I just played the singles Good Technology and Marimba Jive - still excellent. I upset my son by playing them too loud! I used to have a tape of a Red Guitars concert, but sadly it appears to have vanished in a clear out. I am not sure if it one we made ourselves (which we used to do back then) or one we swapped for. I remember seeing the band supporting someone, but I can't remember who or when! We used to see REM and The Smiths a lot in the early eighties so it could have been with them, but it could have been supporting Blue Oyster Cult for all I know! thanks for some top songs. |

My vinyl is in the ex wifes place, so I bravely bought the cd from the weirdo Brighton cleaning/healthfood "front"? Sounds totally excellent still, very weird drumming and deep vocals that weren’t on my 19 year old sonic register at the time...hey Matt, well done. Your lyrics/style and all that survive brilliantly and I have to say, its only that Vampire Weekend that can come close to the afro groove/beat which ran through your stuff - very cool Re-form, I’d come to see you play again |
