It's difficult to convey exactly how fast everything moved between 1977 and 1982. Alastair gives it a great go by comparing the rush of hormonal Pop which changes almost unrecognisbly with every season with what is happening to the bodies and souls of confused teenage types where pretty much the same process is taking place with every passing day.
Alastair of course is always in a band. The Magic Whips become The Commercials and go to Glasgow in an attempt to impress Alan Horne and persuade him to sign them to Postcard Records. He tells them that they sound like Au Pairs. Apparently not a good thing.
They put out a record anyway. Some people like it. Here is one of the B Sides. Sounds fine to me.
