Like the Buds, they put out three albums, the first being more pure pop, and then subsequently adding in a bit of the "Madchester" druggy dance sound so prevalent in the late 80s/early 90s in the UK. The first two Primitives albums (Lovely and Pure) are pretty widely available in used CD shops, but the third one, Galore - thats a tough one to find, as it only came out in the UK and is long out of print. Neverthless, it has some of the bands prettiest songs on it ( I think you can find a lot of the Galore songs on some budget Primitives compilations).<BR/> <BR/>Anyway, sorry to go on. If you like Blondie, Saint Etienne, new wave, 60s girl groups, and twee Brit pop, then you'll really enjoy the Primitives.<BR/> <BR/>I won't even go on about Transvision Vamp! I like them some, but in an entirely different way (more like very very guilty pleasure, like eating easter peeps and getting nauseous).<BR/> <BR/>Be well,<BR/>Bruce<BR/>(aka Taffy)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16333114.post-47929641941465015762008-03-26T11:08:00.000-04:002008-03-26T11:08:00.000-04:00I love the Sundays -- don't know the Darling Buds,...I love the Sundays -- don't know the Darling Buds, though.
