while the television personalities' first album And Don't the Kids Just Love It is creepily cheerful and poppy, their second album Mummy You're Not Watching Me is the exact opposite: noisy, gloomy and much weirder. maybe the drugs were kicking in?
the index made 100 copies of their (second) self-titled albums, which is one of the rarest and most valuable albums of the 60s. luckily for us it's been reissued since the 80s so you don't have to pay hundreds of dollars for a copy. jangly garage rock with a heavy british influence and nico-esque group vocals, recorded with a massive amount of cheap reverb. they have a great naive/fey approach to their covers of songs like eight miles high and you keep me hanging on.
