L #3

The 1990s

The 90s could be described as my 'peak' decade. The money I spent on music-related activities in the first half of it is nobody's business. Most of my income (when I had some) went on music, booze and drugs. The rest of it I wasted. In 1992, I collected all of the Wedding Present's monthly 7"-only singles while working in Our Price.

Today's 'L' track was single number 9 released in September. The video contains semi nudity and garish colours. Not pretty...

  1. Ah halcyon record shop days. I sold a bucketload of the latter Wedding Present monthly singles, but seriously under-ordered the first couple. I had a few unhappy customers.

  2. I'd forgotten about this video! Given the concept, it was a great run of singles though, wasn't it? Great to see them on Top Of The Pops, a welcome alternative (excuse the pun) to the likes of Jimmy Nail and "Dr. All-Bran".
