NEW AND SEALED Limited Edition 500 Only 27 track 2 x Red VINYL LP (SPA001)
New and sealed.

Originally released in 1984, bootleg style, Demonstration Tapes is the legendary moment when Dolly Mixture belatedly unleashed the full extent of their brilliance on the world. Probably fair to say that this is not the music that was making 1984 as it was always their misfortune to be slightly out of time, too late to be the best 60s British girl group of all time, too early for C86.Dolly Mixture were an amazing trio based in London and Cambridge - the three members, Debsey Wykes, Rachel Bor and Hester Smith had a great intuitive rough-edged pop sound, sounded like nothing else when they sung together and had some of the best songs of their generation. For whatever reason they didn't quite fit into that Rough Trade Raincoats world or even its outer realms like Marine Girls. Of their contemporaries they were maybe closest in style to Orange Juice or The Undertones, who they toured with. Paul Weller was a fan, Captain Sensible was a fan, John Peel was a fan. Bob Stanley thinks they had better songs than The Beatles.Impossible to put into words how great this collection is, it's a completely essential document with beautiful new cover art by Paul Kelly. Dolly Mixture forever.A1 Dream Come TrueA2 Ernie BallA3 He’s So FriskyA4 The Didn't SongA5 Will He Kiss Me TonightA6 Miss Candy TwistA7 Shonay ShonayB1 How Come You're Such A Hit With The Boys, Jane?B2 Side Street WalkerB3 Treasure HuntB4 Never Let It GoB5 Angel-TreadsB6 Welcome To The Perfect DayB7 Step Close NowC1 StareawayC2 In Your EyesC3 UnderstandingC4 Never Mind SundaysC5 Spend Your WishesC6 Day By DayC7 Wave AwayD1 Sorry To Leave YouD2 Winter Seems FineD3 Grass Is GreenerD4 Round The CornerD5 Remember ThisD6 Whistling In The Dark
