Repeatedly touted by those in the know, they were a 2 guitar, bass and drums band, playing highly addictive and inventive pop songs with a combustible energy and enthusiasm. Highlights of their brief, but brilliant, career included supporting The Smiths on their first UK tour (1983\/84) – the Boxes went down a storm… every night. Between 1983 and 1985, when they split-up, they headlined around the country and supported various bands including; Orange Juice, The Daintees, Billy Bragg, Hurrah!, Felt, Gary Glitter(!) and many others. In 1984 they played at the ICA’s Big Brother Is Watching You festival alongside Prefab Sprout, The Redskins, Bronski Beat, the Red Guitars and others. The influential fanzine The Underground described them as “the best ‘Pop’ band of the eighties”.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter they split, Peter - the singer and guitarist, went on to form the Wallflowers who achieved success with a number of great singles and Radio One sessions. Blushing Girl Nervous Smile reached number 13 in the vinyl singles chart when it was re-released in 2019.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Telephone Boxes have never released any recordings… until NOW!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe album includes the raw recordings of 1982, live tracks from the Smiths tour and their later, more polished, studio sessions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFEATURES\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLP Version Side One\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLazy Time\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLanguage Of The Land\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLittle White Lies\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou're The One\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI Don't Like To Repeat Myself (Live)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThank You\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTheme From Interpol\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLP Version Side Two\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlease Yourself\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHallelujah I Was Born\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne Day\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNow That We're Friends\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA Twist Of Fate\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLove Was Here\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSTYLE\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD Version\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLazy Time\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLanguage Of The Land\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLittle White Lies\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou’re The One\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI Don't Like To Repeat Myself (Live)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThank You\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTheme From Interpol\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlease Yourself\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHallelujah I Was Born\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne Day\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNow That We're Friends (Live)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA Twist Of Fate\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLove Was Here (Live)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSTYLE\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAffection\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI Read A Book\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGood Fortune\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBoomerang Jack\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCamouflage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA Great Big River\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDown And Out\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEverybody's Fool\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBroken Up\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLiving In Trees\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDeadbeat (Live)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRelatively Speaking\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Detour Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40683690557595,"sku":"LPDRLP088","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1491\/5680\/products\/R-19310854-1624918039-8934_gif.jpg?v=1627893039","url":"https:\/\/pnvdistribution.com\/products\/telephone-boxes-s-t-lp","provider":"pnv distribution","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
