No. 8 Everybody Wants to Shag… The Teardrop Explodes, 1990 Fontana/Phonogram. The first Teardrops' album I bought. The lost third album. Teardrops were down to Cope, Dwyer, and Balfe. Cope details the album’s recording in his essential bio Head-On. #cassettes #cassettetapes

Peak Twitter or X for me tonight ! A brief but enlightening chat with a former keyboard player from The Teardrop Explodes, arising from an @nme1980s thread More significantly he’d be up for a reunion but Ive got to somehow convince main man Julian Cope as it’s his decision

@laurenlaverne @BBC6Music Band names inspired by comics: The Teardrop Explodes came from a Daredevil comic I think. What about Passionate Friend?
