This was in the days, if you believed the PR-fed music press, she was supposed to have been cultivating that class A drug habit & getting all 'grrr' & punkified - truth is, she was a fairly quiet hippy of an individual at that time (barefoot, long blonde hair, indian skirts with tassles & tinkly bells, with a penchant for Klimt poster prints), strumming out folk tunes in a rather well kept (& owned) terrace house.<BR/><BR/>According to Wikipedia, she has since become a Christian & is head of the Christian Union at Dartington.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31163503.post-3308957592719690312008-03-28T16:25:00.000+01:002008-03-28T16:25:00.000+01:00oh boy, now this made me feel 20 years younger: an...oh boy, now this made me feel 20 years younger: and thanks for that! although: the popguns' 'still a world away' - video would have fitted perfectly as well ... just imagine alex taylor, andrea lewis, tracy tracey AND wendy morgan in a row: how much closer to pop heaven could you possibly get?Dirkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02907703583893968857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31163503.post-70436949711762907702008-03-28T00:51:00.000+01:002008-03-28T00:51:00.000+01:00Debut album proper 'lovely' is a good place and th...Debut album proper 'lovely' is a good place and their singles are fantastic, which can easily be found for a few quid in second hand shops like Avalanche in Edinburgh, or ebay. there is a CD compilation called 'best Of the primitives' which is about a fiver, and is available from iTunes if you're not fussed about a hard copy.<BR/><BR/>make sure you keep checking back, as am planning a big post on The Primitives tomorrow.<BR/><BR/>EdEdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14243538543550888272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31163503.post-88293286923736141842008-03-27T18:12:00.000+01:002008-03-27T18:12:00.000+01:00I really enjoyed the video posts, i love how basic...I really enjoyed the video posts, i love how basic and low budget they are making the music stand out more.
