PRE 049: THE CHESTERFIELDS – Janice Long session 06.01.87
Leading lights among the generation of indie pop outfits that thrived in the post-C86 environment, The Chesterfields released three singles on the Subway Organization label before reaching the dizzy heights of No.2 on the independent charts with their debut album ‘Kettle’.
Various line-ups reappeared over the years – as, indeed, did another three LPs – but this is the classic early line-up, captured in a four-song blast session for the BBC in early 1987.
As well as featuring a handful of the Somerset-based group’s best-loved songs, the session features a guest appearance from soon-to-be-legendary West Country-based PJ Harvey producer John Parish – masquerading as ‘Scott Tracey’ for a spot of percussion and backing vocals!
Songsheet: Two Girls And A Treehouse, What's Your Perversion?, Oh Mr Wilson!, Love Mountain
