Magic Bus, La




While we're visiting the cosmic Merseyside area here's The Stairs from 1991 and their none-more-1962-r'n'b song Weed Bus. Led by Edgar Summertyme (who'd pop up in a version of The La's), he's also played with Paul Weller, Johnny Marr and St Etienne as well as releasing some crooning lps as Edgar 'Jones' Jones. For authenticity's sake The Stairs recorded in mono. While stoned.

Love this tune, Britpop two years early!

I lent one of The Stairs a guitar string. He gave me a copy of this on 7" by way of thanks.
