Ultra secret up until the last minute and equally limited, this one sided green vinyl 7″ came in a plain sleeve with the word ‘Broccoli’ on it, nothing more. Hmm. It’d be nice to have a track listing, but it kinda adds to the mystique and prestige of this 7″. Quite what this is (it was going to be an early demo, but something went wrong) I don’t know, but whatever it is, it is absolutely perfect. Vintage BROCCOLI emo poppiest best. I recognise some of the songs… only Grant sounds like Fat Mike or something! It’s really weird – like HOOTON 3 CAR with Fat Mike on vox!! It’s fucking cool though, and a fine tribute to one of Britain’s best, who have sadly now gone. I’m gutted, but thankfully the incredible SHONBEN have helped ease the pain!
