Lemon Hearts - Shake Yourself

7" and 12" Single, released in 1987

Lemon Hearts - Shake Yourself (Extended Mix)
Lemon Hearts - Honey From The Spoon (B-Side)
Lemon Hearts - Pure Love (12" Single B-Side)
Lemon Hearts - Shake Yourself (7" Single A-Side)

Although they only released one single, I love the Lemon Hearts. I took a chance on buying the single unheard several years ago, and then later I found the 12 inch. Last year I messaged producer Nick Tesco over Twitter and he confirmed that the Lemon Hearts had been a new incarnation of Epic pop hopefuls the Roaring Boys, last heard of in 1985. I may have featured a track or two before, but here's their entire recorded output, at least as far as I know.

Some Rare Vinyl Scraps

Thanks to everyone for participating in the 'vinyl vote' this week. I've already digitized the Spoons album Talkback and the Keep It Dark album 1st Down And Ten. Based on the latest poll, I will be doing The Silencers and New Musik next. Great choices too.

I've hit a technical snag in that my new mixer/preamp suddenly decided it only liked one channel. I may be retro but I'm not planning on working in mono anytime soon. So it will be a few days before hopefully I can get a replacement or a repair and be on my way again.

In the meantime, I've put together a short compilation of some of the odd singles and B-Sides I've been working on, most of which are quite rare and probably unknown to you lot. In the tradition of weird foreign compilations I have titled this Super Rare 80's!!! (Volume 1). I hope you enjoy these.
