about

One of the main things happened during 2023 in the indie world, was the return of one of most important bands of the Scottish indie scene. The story of the Soup Dragons, is really impressive, as they started as a psychedelic punk pop band, they were in one of the most legendary releases ever happened, NME's C86 cassette, and at the end they conquered the world, with their hit "I'm Free".

They reformed in 2023, with a new double sided single out, they did their first tour after lots of years, joined by some great friends like the Vaselines, BMX Bandits and the Pastels and a lot of their previous recordings were rereleased or saw the light for first time on vinyl by "Precious Recordings" and "Last Night From Glasgow".

After all only a story left unspoken, and we are so glad that we can give life to Sean Dickson's 1st recordings as teenager at the age of 14-15. Young Sean was dreaming in his bedroom in Bellshill, Scotland, of signing to electronic labels like Mute or Factory records, without knowing his bright future. He recorded on a double cassette deck, his first 10 songs, with a Casio mini keyboard and a Roland drum machine & Roland synth.

Sean recently rediscovered this tape in a box since , and we decided together with Shambotic recordings to give those recordings a proper release. A cassette version of the album will also come out by Shambotic recordings.

And here it is on vinyl ladies and gentlemen. A cover of a Human League song is included (A Crow and a baby), while all other songs written by Sean. The vinyl is limited to 200 copies, on orange vinyl. You will probably recognize some songs, like one of our favorite BMX Bandits songs (Strawberry Sunday). It is based on Sean's Waste Away.

Some fantastic sleeve notes from Sean's great friends from his childhood growing up in his town are included on the sleeve .... Norman Blake (Teenage Fanclub) and Duglas T Stewart (BMX Bandits).

Norman - " It's amazing that Sean has managed to hold onto this recordings for all this time. I think people are going to love hearing the music. It's innocent , sincere and utterly charming."

Duglas - "I am glad this is getting a release. I can clearly hear the beginnings of Sean's unique 'thing' (his signature style).

Don't miss the chance to make this album yours!
