PRE 023: The Orchids – John Peel session 08.05.90

richardw27 it's an absolute treat to have both of The Orchids Peel.sessions available digitally and on vinyl. I'd forgotten just how good they sounded. Four fantastic songs - a rip-roaring version of the much loved Caveman and the beautiful Dirty Clothing from the greatest album of the 90s, Unholy Soul. Truly wonderful.

Record/Vinyl + Digital Album
“The best Scottish pop band since Orange Juice” – Melody Maker

Never before released on vinyl, this is the Sarah Records’ legends at their finest on their debut session for John Peel in 1990. The four songs here include a cracking version of live favourite ‘Caveman’ (better than the Lyceum version, how the band wanted it!) and two others destined to end up on their Unholy Soul album – plus one song never properly released at all.

Package also features a set of postcards with unseen pics; please buy the bundle if you’d like this and the second Orchids session – download codes inside front cover, before you ask. (PS – go and see them live if you can – and recent new LP Dreaming Kind on SkepWax is fab!)
