This is the thread where we reminisce over not particularly good Evening Session bands from the late 90s

Btw I have heard it rumoured that Ultrasound are to return

quite the rumour

I was going to find this thread and bump it myself after I got an email this morning from Pledgemusic telling me about prospective releases by Senser and Spacehog.

David Keenan was a founding member of 18 Wheeler.

Which will teach me to read through entire threads before sharing nuggets like that.

Need to check one day to see if 'We Are Puppets' is still on the Nice 'n' Sleazy jukebox

This must be the least worthwhile purchase ever: http://www.amazon.fr/18-Wheeler-Band-ensemble-Creation/dp/6131840806/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1360845662&sr=8-1

This is the most amazing thread ever. I am so sad to have missed it the first time around. Let me know if anyone wants to revisit. Some choice bands named above...

Does Lamacq play this stuff on 6music? I heard that he claimed someone requested Cud recently. Who on earth would request Cud?

I probably wouldn't request it but i don't skip it when it comes up in shuffle

Would it not be the OG Evening Session stuff, rather than the late 90s era?

well yeah, Cud

Cud released a big box of BBC Sessions not long ago. Fun stuff!

dunno if there's a thread on the OG evening session and i sure as hell wasnt starting one

Cud are awesome. Bibi Couldn't See, Under my Hat, Push and Shove, Eau Water...tons of great songs.

I just listened to their LP! Solid tunes though his voice can be grating. Went on to lead Fixed Stars and Pony Club.
