Martin Carr is one of the unsung hero’s of nineties pop. For a time everything that the Liverpool native touched turned to gold. In the blinding trail left by the Boo Radley’s masterpiece ‘Giant Steps’ the band released a clutch of singles with a remarkable set of b-sides. This included the ‘Wake Up Boo’ release (which while being their most successful recording was rather the black sheep of the pack) that had 2 genuine contenders in ‘The Friendship Song’ and ‘And Tomorrow The World’. The latter is remarkable in its range, a psychedelic piece of bubblegum that flits between crashing vocal harmonies, innovative musical advances and a heart-swelling finale. Nothing challenging, just the sweet flow of ideas from an artist who was truly at the top his game. KD

as a fellow boo fan… do you have the track ‘sunfly’ at all? just curious… :)
Not the original Sunfly but I have the reworked electro version from the Boo Forever EP called Sunfly II: Walking With The Kings. It’s in keeping with most of the Boos b-sides, slightly experimental but brilliant all the same.
