| Notes: | Kick ass soundboard show!! One of Britain's more popular indie guitar-pop groups of the late '80s, the Housemartins' post-Smiths guitar jangle and subtle updating of catchy, melodic British beat groups earned the Hull-based quartet a substantial critical and popular following within the UK. Though the group never gained much more than a cult following in America, their balance of simple, memorable melodies and cutting sarcasm helped them rise into the British Top Ten, as well as earning them consistently strong reviews. With solid harmonies and catchy tunes they heavily influenced many bands, including the Canadian band "Barenaked Ladies" whose sound owes much to this group. Just listen to the BNL track "Hello City" and you?ll hear their homage to The Housemartins "Happy Hour". The Housemartins broke up in 1988, just before they fully broke into the mainstream. The group's lead songwriter, Paul Heaton, formed the Beautiful South the following year, and his new band capitalized on the success of The Housemartins to become one of the more popular U.K. groups of the early '90s. His partner, Norman Cooke, went on to explore dance music under the moniker "Fatboy Slim" and scored many top ten dance singles. This show was recorded for BBC radio and is really sweet! I have been craving a Housemartin show for ages. Thanks so much Ed! Not just for the show, but everything, including the stolen notes! | |||||
