Andy Blade (Ex-Eater): Break the News (1980)



Roberto's Rarities:
An
irregular MRML series powered by the wild generosity of our reader, Roberto: Enjoy and don't forget to leave our benefactor a thank-you COMMENT.

Underaged punkers Eater got maligned a lot back in the day "("Dire." opined Trouser Press editor Ira Robbins, "Yesterday's worst hardcore.") but their reputation has grown over time. Eater's Anglo-Egyptian singer and guitarist Andy Blade (Ashruf Radwan) went onto a few interesting projects including this more Roxy Music-ish solo single in 1980.



To learn more about the apprenticeship of Andy Blade read this excellent interview.



Reactions to this Eater-related new wave rarity are strongly encouraged and can be left in the COMMENTS section (where the Break the News link can be found).

  2. Thanks, Jeff 'n' Roberto. It's certainly more interesting than some of Eater's stuff (that's not to say I dislike all of it).
