Seamonsters (1 Viewer)

[MDR]

Just bought 4 cd's for a tenner each in tower and amongst them is Seamonsters by the Wedding Present. I knew this album off by heart at college but haven't listened to it in about 5 years. My God it's wonderful.

 

[dudley]

ooooh, is that the fancy remastered version?
what are the extra tracks like?

Gantastic album
Weddoes peak

 

[MDR]

It has the extra tracks (listening to 'crawl' at the moment) - didn't realise it was remastered. It's powerful stuff. Bizzaro is ten euro as well and will be the next memorex cassette version of an album I love which will be replaced by a shiny cd.

Everybody sing it:

bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrassneck!

the original CD of Seamonsters pales in comparison to the sound quality of the LP in my onion

Haven't heard the new edition - I believe the bonus tracks are culled from 3Songs , Dalliance and Lovenest 12"s

Sea Monkeys are better.

it does just age 'n' improve with age. only posted this cos I was just listening to bizarro with the extra tracks, but sdeamonsters is the business.

Yes? High wedding present

 

[outoftheblue]

the extra tracks are quite fun, it has that cover of 'Come up and see me (make me smile)' which rockks lots, 'Niagara', single version of Corduroy too I think.... much agreement with all that everyone's said so far. the word mighty was invented for them. and for crossword clues.

there was a 3rd one re-issued in addition to bizarro and saemonsters? was it george best? i wish they'ed do watusi.
extra tracks on bizarro are amazing. i love that one with the drum roll all the way through the song.

George Best Plus comes with b-sides from Anyone Can Make A Mistake, all tracks from Nobodys Twisting Your Arm and Why Are You Being So Reasonable Now plus the French version of the latter


the reissues are just the RCA stuff - Bizarro, Seamonsters and a new Hit Parade comp that Ian mentioned. Might be worth buying for the book.

Hit Parade 2 came with bonus LP which had Peel Session versions of all 12 singles, which was a good deal.

It was good fun getting the 7"s on the first Monday of each month. And watching TOTP.

Great days

Watusi is now deleted. That short-lived period when they signed with Island

a shame cos it's a very underrated record

being a studenty bastared, i couldent aford the 1.99 a month, and only ended up with about 4 of the 12... i found a shit load, nearly the whole collection at the record fair in DL last month, alas the asking price was way too much...

I got the hit parade remastered earlyer today... it sounds amaaazing, especially on headphones... the really know how to remaster these babies...
oh and the book aint a book, just a reeealy long sleve with all the covers


I cant believe they deleted watusi!!!!
thats secretly my favorite weddos album

 

[nlgbbbblth]

the twelve 7"s used to go for around £70 Irish up til a few years ago
Which isn't as much as you would think

I got a box for them at the Fiddler gig in 94 for £2 . Black with The Hit Parade in big letters and The Wedding Present in small letters across the front.

hmmm remastered CD sounds tempting allright
