Was disappointed to find that 'Being Boiled' was a re-recording (thankfully I have the original on 7"). And as for the cover of Gary Glitter's 'Rock ’n’ Roll' and it's hilarious segueing (or more accurately, the slowing down of the drum machine) into Iggy Pop's 'Nightclubbing', well, I think it's fair to say they won't be reprising that on any 'Here & Now' tours ....

The Last of the Teenage Idols – Satellite Head Gone Soft

The Last of the Teenage Idols

Satellite Head Gone Soft

Razor RAZ47
99p + P&P

Filed between David Kusworth 'Bounty Hunters' and John Lennon 'Walls And Bridges'.

A classic case of a band that you either know or you don't, and if in the former group you probably have happy memories of them!

Formed after the demise of his previous group the Babysitters by London legend Buttz, The Last Of The Teenage Idols were regulars at the Marquee roughly between 1987 and 1992 (in fact bassist Shuff still lurks around the area). This, their one album, is guaranteed to raise a smile and in 'Gina', carried forward from the Babysitters era (though they never recorded it as far as I know) you have a hit that never was.
