For a fleeting period in 1982, they kissed the sky with three hit singles. https://tinyurl.com/33nfxbwe\n\nSimon Raymonde confides, \"My first job was working at the Beggars Banquet record shop in South Kensington. Billy MacKenzie would ask me to walk his dogs for him while he was having his meetings with the label upstairs. So I already had a deeper connection with The Associates before Sulk came out. It’s one of the best-sounding records ever. I used to listen to it and think, ‘How did they do that? What instruments are they?’ It does sound like it’s from another universe.\n\n\"After Billy died, I got a call to ask if I’d be interested in co-producing the unfinished tracks that Billy had left behind. It was obviously very sad working on songs by someone who’s not there anymore, who you’ve idolised for twenty years. But it was a massive privilege.\" https://tinyurl.com/3f97et98", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
