   Dale says Mmm, that's a track from Pelican West that I hadn't heard before. Delightful! And if memory serves, I think Aztec Camera did get signed well after Haircut 100.

   ivylander says Weirdly enough, back in the day I saw both these bands live in the same summer, at the same outdoor venue near the West Side Highway in Manhattan. Aztec Camera was opening for Elvis Costello, if I remember correctly, and thought they were appallingly mixed, Roddy Frame was charismatic enough to almost pull off the set. God, what great songs they had. Haircut 100? Strictly a studio proposition.

   Mike the Knife says Again, a few worthy (and/or wacky) relics of the era. Speaking of Haircuts, how about all that feathering?
