Magpie Eyes 1982-1985
A re-press of this 2003 release. Yes, the 'seminally seminal' guitar slingers from the dawn of Creation Records whose measly two singles have since become something of the holy grail for those who like their 80s pop equal parts bubbling melancholia, Byrdsian jangle and anthemic flag-waving. 'Magpie Eyes 1982-85' gathers together practically everything they released, and didn t release for that matter, in their short but perfectly-formed lifetime. As well as Why Does The Rain and Up The Hill And Down The Slope (huge indie hits when such things actually mattered), here are studio out-takes, BBC sessions and live tracks as well as contributions from James Dean Bradfield, Alan McGee, Janice Long, Steve Lamacq, Dave Gedge...the whole celebrity fan club in fact!
