Ahhh happy days ! I vaguely knew The Poppyheads and went to several of their Cambridge gigs - they were at Uni there. If I remember correctly (it was 20 yrs ago !) they renamed themselves 'The Castle' (after the Love track) and moved in a harder, noiser Sonic Youth direction !!?! I kid you not.
Actually now I think about it they may have renamed themselves 'The Pearl' .... both names were in the running and not sure which they went for. Not that I'm losing sleep over it : )
When I was 18 I didn't own any Sarah records so you've outplayed me (ok,the label was 5 years away from conception).

I only have 1 sarah record, and that's skywriting by the field mice. Seeing as I'm only just 18 I find this quite an achievement! :]
