The High - Box Set Go

How about a bit of baggy? The High were a "Madchester" band that not many people seemed to care about then and almost nobody remembers now. Which is a shame, because a lot of their debut album Somewhere Soon is pretty good. Nothing to go bananas over, but enjoyable enough if you're into that sort of thing.

This was their first and best single. I always thought it bore an uncanny resemblance to a 1980s tune called "Trusted Woods" by the Reverbs, but I'm sure that's a complete coincidence since nobody ever heard of the Reverbs. I must put that up here sometime, it's really good. Anyway, here's the High song... with apologies for the rubbish video.
