DROP 84

This song seems very fitting considering the weather both in England and Sweden lately. Hope we don't get washed away at Indietracks! As you might remember this was the closing track on my Rip It Up tape as well, so here's a chance for everone else to hear it. I've got this on the Bus Stop compilation Peppermint Stick Parade (I don't have to tell you what a brilliant, brilliant name that is) from 1995, but it's originally from that legendary Bus Stop flexi that was the first thing they released. This split-flexi from 1987 also had The Stupid Cupids' "Big Blue Bus" on it. The Stupid Cupids were of course Paul and Ric in yet another disguise and the song is pretty much a demo version of what later became "Big Blue Buzz" by The Choo Choo Train! While you're at it you should also download "Love Grows Where My Rosemary Goes" from The Siddeleys' website, if you haven't already.
