As a lemony cloth for my brain’s art hands, it’s Matthew Corbett and his family

Mathew Corbett with Sooty Sweep and Soo, an energetic oil pastel drawing based on an innocent 80s publicity photo of a white man with reddish hair and three small famous hand puppets, a yellow bear a grey dog and a femme panda

The albums were all set to be reissued on expanded CD's a few years ago with all that kind of thing on there but as far as I am aware the project was nixed from within.

Yes BBC sessions and/or a live album by the Sprouts would be most welcome. In fact all Sprout action is welcome!

FYI this is actually a Peel Session and the tape is speeded up a bit. It is sourced from a bootleg where it was speeded up because the bootlegger couldn't fit all the tracks on the tape so he speeded em up to save space. Has never been officially released which is a great shame.

While you’re all mad at Taylor Swift beefing with Charlie XCX I’m over here wondering why Springsteen didn’t respond to Prefab Sprout’s diss track “Cars and Girls”

I randomly ended up chatting to a chap who told me he was in this band the other day. Poison, The Cult, Sigue Sigue Sputnik, Transvision Vamp vibes. Worthy of a place on relevant archival compilations of lost gunk. Sister Midnight- 'Flesh'. Still....
