THE WILDERNESS CHILDREN EP INSERT

Just thought I'd put this insert that came with the EP up on view to accompany the previous item. It has band photos, bits of info and lyrics.
Click to enlarge.

THE WILDERNESS CHILDREN E.P. - 1988

The Wilderness Children, fae Mid Craigie, released this vinyl EP in 1988. It's titled "We're A Council House Punk Rock Band" and it has 3 tracks - "Mrs Susan Spence" - "Go To Hell" and "Midsummer's Night Dream".
The band line-up, albeit only on first name terms, is Fraser, guitar - Andrea, vocals - Peter, guitar - Mike, bass - Phil, drums and Pete, visuals.
I do know that Fraser & Andrea Reid were married.
The EP, using the DIY punk approach, apparently only cost £63 to record and the band literature goes on to say "If we can do it, so can you. Get off your arse and do something", which is pretty sound advice.
It also states on the cover "Pay as little as possible".
The sample I have chosen below, is a tasty wee indie tune for July called "Midsummer's Night Dream".
