Can vaguely recall hitch hiking down to London from the North East with the ex in 1984 to see The Cocteau Twins at Saddlers Wells Didn’t have tickets or anywhere to sleep overnight , ended up kipping in an underground car park in Mayfair in the middle of December. Fucking incredible gig though !

I’m convinced I can post 50 Buried Classics in the next 50 days. Songs tucked away at the back end of albums or EPs. Or just low key singles on tiny labels that vanished without trace. There’s a few on this Pale Saints album. And yes, the album itself is a classic .
