The Complete Singles 1982-85 & More
, on limited purple vinyl gatefold double-LP. Includes indie chart-toppers 'Snake Dance', 'Deep' and 'Walk Into The Sun' 7" versions. Twenty-two tracks -- all their '80s repertoire plus three highlights from this century. From Leeds, friends and label-mates of Sisters of Mercy, they issued six singles and a compilation. The March Violets came out of Leeds in the early '80s. Releasing six singles, they were a constant presence in the UK indie charts, hitting the top two spots with 'Snake Dance', 'Deep' and number one with 'Walk Into The Sun'. They never got around to recording an album -- their only '80s long-players,
Natural History
in the UK and
Electric Shades
in the USA, were compilations. Eventually they signed to a major label and were groomed for a USA breakthrough, performing in the 1987
Some Kind of Wonderful
movie. However, they were asked to make too many compromises and eventually split up. Here is all their 1980s independent catalogue compiled in the original versions, together with three tracks from this century. It chronicles their development with lead singers Simon Denbigh, Rosie Garland and Cleo Murray and backed by bassist Lawrence Elliot and guitarist Tom Ashton."
