Flesh for Lulu, Long Live The New Flesh, 1987 on Beggars Banquet / Capitol

Third full-length album from Brixton London post-punks Nick Marsh, James Mitchell, Rocco Barker, Derek “Del Boy” Greening, and Kevin Mills—and their first on Beggars Banquet/Capitol. (Capitol in the US, Beggars Banquet in the UK).

The lead single “I Go Crazy” was featured in the film Some Kind of Wonderful and became a minor hit.

This LP was followed by Plastic Fantastic which was their last album with this lineup.

Flesh For Lulu, Big Fun City, 1985 on Statik Records

This was the sophomore studio album by Brixton’s Flesh For Lulu, released by London-based Statik Records in 1985. Nick Marsh (vocals, guitar), James Mitchell (drums), Kevin Mills (bass), Rocco Baker (guitar), with Cassell Webb (percussion).

Great mid-eighties post-punk / gothic sound. They later signed to Beggars Banquet and then Capitol Records.

My copy—via the now-defunct Vinyl Destination in Lowell, MA—includes also the original Blue Sisters Swing EP on 12″ vinyl.
