Oh wow. I was looking through my CD collection, and began wondering what the Soup Dragons sounded like before Lovegod, as it was the earliest piece I had by them.
A classic !!!! Also the video of "Hang Ten", another classic used to be on youtube, but sadly record companies forced youtube to remove it for copyright reasons !!!!!
They released a string of tremendous singles, none of which were released on CD in the UK. There is a CD available from the US called 'Hang-Ten!" which cobbles together said single along with 'Whole Wide World' and 'Head Gone Astray' together with the relevant b-sides. Catalogue number is 9 25666-2.
Will anyone ever post "The Majestic Head" by Soup Dragons? Why is this song so hard to find. I know I'll never find "I wish I was a Girl" by wasted youth but c'mon people!! Where's "majestic Head"?
Awesome. I remember this. Can't believe they jumped on the Manchester Baggy Scene. They still sounded cool, but this period remains my favourite from them :)
I'd forgotten how slight the tune was on this record. Still they compensate for that with the professionalism of the video.

Saw them in Bristol Bierkeller around this time and they were absolutely brilliant.
Then they bought into the Manc scene and it all went wrong. Great shame.

'whole wide world', 'hang ten', 'head gone astray' and this were all great. then it started to go down hill, sadly.
