So starting this episode with Tullycraft's song Twee. Early indie pop or alternative has been seen as being 'twee', I find it difficult to describe because there were, and still are, a lot of nuance within the alternative scene.
I'll go back to the early days of Orange Juice and talk about the bands, how they developed their music, especially The Soup Dragons, PWEI and Primal Scream.
There is a lot to go into in one episode, this will probably cover the 80's up until at least 1987
Tonights bands:
Tullycraft- Twee
Orange Juice- Bridge
The Soup Dragons- Whole Wide World
The Flatmates- Shimmer
