Song Of the Day: June 8, 2005


One of the many enchanting artifacts from the initial era of Creation Records was this disc by the Revolving Paint Dream, which included members of some of the other Creation notables of the era like Primal Scream and Biff! Bang! Pow! They took a long break after this single, then resurfaced with another terrific single ("Sun, Sea, Sand") and a couple of albums a few years later. Like some of you other folks, I first heard this song on the I Love the Smell of Napalm compilation, which introduced many of the wonderful 45s Alan McGee had corralled to the US for the first time.

Brilliant!! as the Brits would say. I was there in the Boston import record shops buying every Creation 45 as it came out, the sleeves alone were worth the price...the first dozen releases are basically flawless. Predating this label a few years was the amazing Splash Of Colour LP w/ Mood Six, the High Tide and other great early 80s UK pop-psych...Great choice!!
