Loveblobs and R.I.C on Marc Riley's show!

So, the other day here, the Loveblobs got 5 of their songs from 1992 finally played on the internet then yesterday on Radio 6, Marc Riley coincidentally played their Peel session from the same year! An amazing coincidence considering it's been 15 years since any of these songs were recorded. Of course, I had to inform the ex-Boy Lard about this and he read out my email. Now, other than JP, Mark and Lard were two of my favourite DJs and one of them mentioned me and this blog on his Brain Surgery show! You can probably imagine this excited me just a tad. Maybe you listened to the show. If not, you can listen to it again at the link below. The historic piece of broadcasting (for me anyway!) appears at 1 hour 37 mins into the show.

Listen to the show again here
And here is the tracklisting to be able to find the other songs.

The Loveblobs


I posted one of their songs near the start of this blog and since then, Colin Todd, from the band, has been in touch and sent me 5 album tracks. Here's his summary and a photo that he also sent me.

The Loveblobs were:
Paul Thorpe - Vocals/guitar
Tim Holdcroft - Guitar
Col Todd - Bass/vocals
Tim Cedar - Drums

We recorded 2 mini lps for Wiiija in 1992:
Congealed
+ Extraction (Combined as Prehistoric Extraction on CD)

Here is a selection!

Peanuts
Soul Station (the other one was the Peel session version)
Kasso
Cylinder Head
Ringpull

We also recorded a Peel session (IMO the best thing we ever did) but i've only got it on cassette!!!

So, thanks Col and let's hope that people are glad they heard the Loveblobs the second time around!

The Loveblobs - Soul Station

This is a truly brilliant song. Early 90s again, I don't remember hearing other songs by them but they released an album called Congealed.

Listen to Soul Station
