I saw them at the Glasgow School Of Art temporary Students Union building in Renfrew St. around '78/'79, with (possibly) Craig Ferguson on drums and front man Peter Capaldi with a long black coat and a red Gibson SG! I have a distinct memory of Capaldi, in a very darkened venue, hanging on the mic stand with his SG slung round the back, crooning away and then jumping around like a nutter! They had a single out shortly after, as I recall. I remember meeting Peter in the Third Eye Centre cafe in Sauchiehall St, a couple of days after that gig, with my mate Jake Black, (who ended up as The Rev. De Wayne Love in the Alabama 3!) and asking him if I could try out his SG...which he politely declined, explaining that he'd worked in a bar for 6 months to afford to buy it, and wasn't about to let some twat he hardly knew scratch the finish...or words to that effect! And who could blame him!

I can tell by his dramatic punk note intonations, he must have been an angsty artsy teen/young adult in 20s 😂😊 totally adorable.

Listening to this has just catapulted me back to the Doune Castle, a pub in Shawlands, Glasgow, where everybody from Simple Minds to the Berlin Blondes and Positive Noise started out. There was a Greek restaurant upstairs and if the bands were playing too loud the manager, Nico, would hurtle down the stairs and yell “You make-a the peas jump on the plates!” I vaguely knew Peter and was/am delighted by his subsequent success. But he’s better at acting than singing 😅 !

I actually like this. It's super weird but if you're like me and you already dig super weird angular post-punk music like Plain Characters, Tactics, or similar... this is super similar. It's strangely catchy and I can def hear The Doctor's voice here, which is neat. :)

Ah man, this is pretty decent post-punk for a student band. Don't be a downer, you're sounding a bit like Neil from the Young Ones!
