Watusi

For many, The Wedding Present are the very epitome of indie. Formed in 1985, the group rose to prominence as part of the so-called C86 scene (a free NME cassette that showcased new bands of the era), with their fast-paced jangle-pop and intelligent lyrics by founder and only band constant David Gedge. The group built on the critical and commercial success of their debut album, 'George Best', and, in 1992, made headlines with their cunning ruse of issuing a single a month, all of which made the UK Top 40. Signing to Island Records, the group - at this point Gedge, guitarist Paul Dorrington, bassist Darren Belk and drummer Simon Smith - went to Seattle to record with producer/engineer Steve Fisk, known then for his work with the fabled Sub-Pop label. As a result, 'Watusi' is both razor sharp and slyly commercial, as typified by its singles 'Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah' and 'It's a Gas'.
