An antidote to the royal wedding
Were The Riots the ones that inspired Eddy Grant to write "Electric Avenue"?
I think so (Brixton not Toxteth of course).
When you mentioned 'new breed of bands who sang about sexual politics and feminism' my first thought was the Au Pairs.
Delta 5 are new to me so thanks for introducing them through your post.
As I recall, people tended to talk about those two bands as part of the same movement.
Love the social context of the royal wedding and the Toxteth riots. And the Lady Di blouses everywhere! The music blends with the times.
The best!
