Description

Fantastic album by the great UK band. This was released by Island Records and contains the great  Demon Seed

1. Big Wheel 2. Wanted It All 3. Ways Of Love 4. Demon Seed 5. How Can Anybody Do This 6. Skybound 7. Rainbows Edge 8. Devils Highway 9. Saddest Day 10. Magic Dies


The track ‘Skybound’ although hugely pre-ordered, was stopped a week before its release due to the fallout with the label & is now valued at £60 in record collector.

CLAYTOWN TROUPE – Back in the late 80’s this lot were the only real alternative to The Cult. More anthemic and more authentic than Astbury & Co’s rawk; Moving a few hundred thousand units internationally over their short period in the limelight, they even broke the UK top 40 before disappearing.

Formed in Bristol in 1984 by lead singer Christian Riou. Claytown Troupe was an Alt-Rock act touted as a cross between The Cult’s fake rock and the authentic crusty rock of Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead.

In truth there was more to them than that and they suffered much in coming from England at a time of ‘Crusty’; a time when high expectations in Rock, and Rock itself, were generally frowned upon.

By 1986 they had an accomplished yet chaotic live show which earned them an exciting reputation on the underground scene. Signed to Island in 1988 this Ron Fair and Ralph Jezzard produced debut was universally well received yet only made it to a criminally underrated number 74 in the album charts.
