Television Personalities

Some Kind Of Happening (singles 1978-1989) (2cd)

A comprehensive remastered 17-track collection of all of the Television Personalities' ground-breaking singles, from the John Peel-approved '14th Floor' through to the effervescent 'Salvador Dali's Garden Party' EP. Also included are the super rare 'Creation' flexi, the TVP's recordings as 'The Gifted Children', the even rarer 'Caff' 45, on which the band tackles Stock, Aitken And Waterman, two shelved 45s for the Dreamworld label plus a take on Syd Barrett's 'Apples And Oranges' from the 'Beyond The Wildwood' tribute album. This DOUBLE-CD is presented in a DVD-sized package.
