And while we're at it, what about Captain Scarlet,
the unreleased only album (I believe from '89) by Shop Assistants lead singer
Alex's subsequent band, Motorcyle Boy?

Assistants - Will Anything HappenRe-issued
I hope Cherry Red will reissue or issue since it never came out
(also on Blue Guitar) the Dorothy, post-Raincoats album. Has anyone ever heard
the full album?
"Cherry Red are re-releasing The Shop Assistants compilation of all
their Blue Guitar recordings Will Anything Happen later this
month.
It was originally released on Overground in 2001 and comprises
the bands self titled début plus the b-sides of I Don't Wanna Be Friends
With You both of which were originally released in 1986.
Cherry
Red originally wanted to do a retrospective album but it looks like
licensing issues have prevented that meaning that the Subway Organisation,
53rd & 3rd and Avalanche material is missing. Additionally the Buba
& The Shop Assistants single is absent.
You can pre-order the
album from here. I highly recommend
it!"
