Dan Treacy of the Television Personalities' unique musical vision filled with twisted humour, innocence, truth, beautiful melodies and a contradictions changed my life. Jonathan Richman made me want to be musician but hearing the TVPs made me take action. This was my punk rock, my self empowering revolution. It wasn't just me and my own band, BMX Bandits, their music and being had a massive affect on many of my Scottish peers including The Pastels, Teenage Fanclub, The Vaselines, Soup Dragons have admitted their debt to them. Alan McGee admits his Creation records, who brought the world My Bloody Valentine, Jesus & Mary Chain and Oasis, was him trying to emulate his hero Dan's small but individual label Whaaam! Kurt from Nirvana personally sought them out to support them at a London show, where they confused the audience of mostly young grungeophilles. What was the magic? Well you can find the answer here. It was the first album they released and the first I got by them. It's beautifully simple amateur pop art cover is the perfect package for what's inside; pop rewrites of Dan's favourite movies, television, books and personal experiences growing up, his world. On this album less is definetly more and it's rough edges sound even more vital to me now than back then. Geoffrey Ingram and Silly Girl are up there as all time mod classics with the best of Townsend or Davis; I Know Where Syd Barrett Lives has become part of Syd's legend and A Picture of Dorian Gray is so GREAT and so BEAUTIFUL. Don't the kids love it...they should.
