SHELLEY’S CHILDREN

Shelley’s Children were one of those bands that were far too pop for their own good, especially as they were entrenched in the political, even ‘crusty’ scene of the late 80’s.

I loved them, they had some of the best harmonies I’d ever heard and were basically just a great pop band, more Bay City Rollers than Dog On A Rope!

They only ever released one 12” single and a mini-album on their own ‘Peasants Revolt’ label and a few tracks on compilations, they were in the studio recording their debut LP proper (for Released Emotions Records) when they called it a day in 1991.

They resurfaced later that year with a few different members as Cuckooland.

The ‘Everything’ CD is just that, everything they did including some very lo-fi demos.. but I think you’ll agree it’s a great album and about time too!
