The Sea Urchins - Demo TAPE

(Self Released cassette tape, 1986)

Presumably not the only demo cassette tape that England's The Sea Urchins' recorded, but this was recorded in Roberts Room 1986. 

'You're So Shiny' is an early version of the song later known as 'You're So Much'

'Show Your Colours' is an early version of a song later known as 'A Morning Odyssey'.

'Summer Shine' is an early version of a song later known as 'Summershine'.

These very early versions of Summer Shine and Clingfilm are not the same version as used on the Sh La La and Kvatch flexi discs. None of these versions of songs appear on the 'Stardust' compilation.
