Songs About People # 1,160 Peregrine Worsthorne


McCarthy were one of the more interesting and individual groups on the C-86 scene.Essentially coming on like a poetic, Marxist Byrds. Here they nod to Peregrine Worsthorne, the kind of know it all toff who seemed to plague the airwaves in the Seventies and Eighties. This shows how much this marginal strain of music was capable of as an expression of artistic discontent with genuine reach. Quite excellent.
