yes, I have their Fuzztone Fizzadelic compilation - but I had no idea there was a connection between the 2 bands before!

I remember Let's Evolve from it being on peel and then on a tape I listened to a lot after grabbing bits off his show.
I think the studio sound was pretty different wasn't it?

I've never heard the Peel session but it looks like it was from 1983 - they did a couple of singles 81-82 then there's a gap from 83-86, so maybe they changed their sound during that hiatus?

Oh man, you HAVE to hear the two Peel sessions.

I remember tuning into that peel session 2 minutes into "Let's Evolve" and thought it rub.

Obviously, I have it now (the cassette single because trendy, 50p recently), its OK.

four months pass...

Just when i thought nobody cared, i found this thread..

Every couple of years i have the 'i wonder what Sudden
Sway are up to now' thought, and the last time that happened
i went down a 'where is Mike McGuire' rabbithole and i found this:

https://www.surrey.ac.uk/people/michael-mcguire

certainly looks like him
so i sent him an email to see if he knew anything about sudden sway,
this was his reply

"Nothing is impossible.

Even logical contradictions can be accommodated, according to the dialetheist."

so there's that :)

Oh my giddy aunt...
(sits down to watch video like it's the new single)

I burst out laughing as soon as i heard the voice, good work, how many sway references can you invent? Love that the screenshot is very Spacemate. I think this an elaborate scheme for the 23 remaining sudden sway stans.
