I'd pulled out Wooden Foot Cops On The Highway a 1988 album by the Woodentops with a view to featuring it today when a 7 inch single fell out of the sleeve.
It contains two of their previous singles from 1985 Move Me and Well Well Well
I gave it a listen (once I realised it was a 33 as opposed to a 45!) and decided that it should feature today with the album being put aside for a later date.
I had absolutely no recollection of ever seeing or playing this single before although I suspect I must have.
Not sure if I can therefore put it down as a find but it sure feel like one.
The Woodentops - Move Me
The Woodentops - Well Well Well
That pic of the Woodentops has made my day. Go Spotty Dog, go! The very biggest spotty dog you ever did see.
ReplyDeleteA good little band in their day. 'You Make Me Feel' was a favourite in my house.
ReplyDeleteCatching up with your last few posts today. You hit the jackpot with those early singles. The band's best moment came a year later with Giant, but Wooden Foot Cops On The Highway is pretty good too. Out of nowhere, in 2013, came Granular Tales, and I discovered the band all over again. Love when that happens.
ReplyDeleteLove The Wooden Tops, the only thing wrong with the recent Wedding Present gig was that I missed Rolo's solo set finding the bloody venue. Hate gigs in Edinburgh. I love the Live, Hypnobeat Live album too.
ReplyDeleteI will second that live album Drew mentions. Hugely successful on the indie chart.
