Artist: Modern English
LP: 7" single
Song: "Gathering Dust"
[ listen ]
While working at Budget Tapes & Records in Yakima, Washington back in the 1980s, I started listening to bands on the British 4AD label—like Cocteau Twins, This Mortal Coil, Xmal Deutschland and Dead Can Dance. The music of 4AD had a strong influence on me then, and I began collecting everything on the label I could find. I still keep an eye out for rare 4AD stuff, and I finally came across this Modern English single from 1980 (the label's first year in business) while on my trip to Boston last November. You can read about Modern English here and the 4AD label here.
