Like all old OGWT clips, I only remember this in black & white on my bedroom portable! Got my (long awaited) CD re-issue of Author! Author! a couple of years ago and have used it to recruit new fans to the music. Saw them at Glasgow's Plaza Ballroom supporting The Fall in 1981.
Woe. They sound great! How is it I've never heard of this band? I just stumbled here from Lemon Jelly sampling of their "Horror Show" on "The Shouty Tune". This dude has a great voice and I love the bassline.
Author! Author! is rather timeless. It sounds like the type of album you could play to someone today and tell them it was recent music. Good songwriting and production.
