[2022] Cuddly Toys - Dancing Glass
Out of the Punk ashes of Raped came the Glam gloriousness of Cuddly Toys. They released two brilliant records released in 1979 and 1982 and then disappeared. Imagine Ziggy era Bowie and early 80's synth based pop. This is a compilation of B-Sides, Unreleased and Rarities etc. Contains their stonking cover of The Supreme's You Keep Me Hanging on, later covered brilliantly by Kim Wilde. Highly recommended!
Thanks Nik, remeber them doing a Bolan/Bowie song recorded about the same time (*and on a Bolan bootleg album with ;Sleeping next to You') fantastic bit of archive footage of it here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w52Yc8LhopA (Marmike)
