10am Sunday! https://portobelloradio.com for Dick O'Dell's All Time Faves Pt 19 2014-2024. #billieeilish #labrinth #floatingpoints #mosessumney #carolinepolachek #tovelo #weyesblood #charlixcx & many more! Stories & chat with Rolo from The #Woodentops... “But when I wake up, I see you with me”
9. The Woodentops – Giant
Bits of Suicide,Talking Heads, XTC, Bunnymen and the frenetic rhythms of The Feelies, all treated with acoustic folk, twisted with other instrumentation like marimbas. A lost classic.

Bands (aside The Go Betweens, obviously!) who coulda, woulda, and most definitely shoulda been massive, back in the 80s....
Still, left us with some great music.
Could select so much from this lot, but this'll do, for now!

this Song Of the Day(ish) has been a favorite since i first heard it on KROQ back in the day. it currently feels like we're all trapped in the car.

For whatever reason, when riding my bike this morning I started thinking about The Woodentops and the realisation that I can only remember the name of the dog. (I think)

Could've picked any of their songs, to be honest, but having first heard both Peel and Fanning play "Plenty", I was hooked there and then, forevermore, on the brilliance of The Woodentops.
Have everything they ever released on vinyl.
Any fans on here?
