Before The Bachelor Pad, there was The Wee Cherubs. A collection of lost recordings made in Glasgow between 1982-1985. Restored and remastered especially for this release. Formed in 1982 by Martin Cotter, Christine Gibson, and Graham Adam and part of the Glasgow indie scene of the early '80s. The Wee Cherubs only released one single. The recently reissued Dreaming, (which is included in this set) before calling it a day in 1985. Their range of influences are on show here, and although some tracks are redolent of Orange Juice and Aztec Camera there is no definitive Wee Cherubs sound, which makes this collection an exciting and rewarding discovery. Cotter went on to The Bachelor Pad a psych-fueled head on collision between The Buzzcocks and Syd Barrett.

Impossibly rare 1984 UK 7" vinyl single, written by a pre-Bachelor Pad's Martin Cotter. One of only three releases by the short-lived Glasgow based indie label Bogaten, although redolent of early Orange Juice in the sound of the A-side, also looks forward to shoegaze, with a reverb-drenched cover of The Velvet Underground's "Waiting For My Man" on the B-side. Color vinyl; includes postcard and poster; edition of 800.
