4.0 out of 5 stars Cool Reissue, July 31, 2001

Beautiful, wispy, and minimalist melodicism. Stripped down to mostly just guitars (acoustic) and voice, this is a great double album reissue that is an interesting combination of post-punk ideas with a folkish edge. Fans of Young Marble Giants should definitely pick this one up, as they took most of their influence from this other great band.

The marine girls were the thing that made me smile back in the days of Thatcher - Regan and depression.

They are still wonderful and if you can get this an Trixie and her big red motorbike on one day somewhere you will be in paradise

5.0 out of 5 stars An album for all EBTG fans, July 14, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Lazy Ways / Beach Parties (Audio CD)

I bought this album back in 1983 when I was at college. It was bought as a result of the Pillows and Prayers album from Cherry Red released in 1982. This featured Tracey Thorn, Ben Watt, EBTG and the Marine Girls. I bought Tracey Thorn's solo album as a congratulation present for failing my driving test. Next was this album.

Some of the singing is not the best, but tracks like Flying Over Russia are just fantastic.

I have my copy signed by Tracey, when I saw EBTG. The drummer that night (I think played in Communards(?)) had never heard of it, so that was good. Ben signed his solo album, and they both signed my EBTG album. A Good night.
