Yesterday, I did promise that today would bring something along these lines:-
mp3: The Wedding Present – My Favourite Dress
There’s every chance that the three tracks from this 1987 single, released on Reception Records, have featured before. But when they are this good, who cares?
mp3: The Wedding Present – Every Mother’s Son
mp3: The Wedding Present – Never Said
I recently paid my first ever visit to Brighton, specifically to attend the thirteenth edition of the Edge of The Sea Festival, aka Gedgefest. The city and the festival both lived up to expectations. My Favourite Dress was played, to great acclaim, at the Weddoes gig on the Friday night.
Tickets for next year have already been purchased. I need to wait a while to sort out my travel and accommodation arrangements, but I’m sure I’ll be fine.
Diana Ross. The Wedding Present. What’s next?
Tune in tomorrow to find out.
THE NEW VINYL VILLAIN 
Joe Lean and the Jing Jang Jong????
Early Wedding Present is where I’m most comfortable. The indie-schmindie section of the indie club would rush to the dance floor for this. Quite right too! I hear elements of Eno’s Third Uncle never ever a bad thing (step forward Bauhaus you did a fantastic job). I can only hope that tomorrow will see Almost Angelic grace the blog. I’m a genuine fan. So well observed.

I must make it to The Edge of The Sea one year. Maybe once Amusements Minor has grown up and August is a less pressured time.
The early Weddoes singles like this one never get old.
Great song.
