SINGLES 1991-1998 (2LP ,GF, POSTCARD, ARTWORK INSERT)

"One Sunday afternoon in 1990, I had a phone call from Keith saying that Sarah Records had
received the demo cassette the two of us had recorded on a 4-track in a friend's shed and were
interested in putting out two of the songs as a single. They were Clearer and Alison. Delighted
by this news, we booked some recording time with a studio we'd regularly used in our
previous incarnation as Feverfew, the White House in Weston-super-Mare. This was the first
time we'd ever played a note of music that was using someone else's money, so the pressure
was being felt. We recorded Clearer, Fearon and Chelsea Guitar, with Clearer becoming
Sarah 55, the first of eight singles for the band across two labels. At that time, we were still
toying with a name for ourselves and had settled with the Art Bunnies. While driving us back
home from Weston, though, I declared that I really couldn't see how people would take us
seriously with a name like that. Disappointed, Keith (Girdler) then got out a piece of paper
upon which he'd written several other contenders. These included Opal Trumpet, the Smiling
Monarchs and (thankfully) Blueboy."
