Today, however, to mark Siouxsie's 56th birthday, Tom Ravenscroft played a session version of the fantastic 'Placebo Effect' from 'Join Hands' by yer actual Banshees. It sounded magnificent coming out of the radio. To continue the celebrations, here's another corker from Bromley's finest.

Siouxsie Sioux at 56
It's my age I know, but whenever Savages are
played on 6Music (and with the recent
release of their debut album, they've been
played a lot) I turn to Mrs S and
say...'this is a splendid racket, but it
don't arf sound like Siouxsie & the Banshees
in places...' Or words to that effect.

Happy birthday. Ms. Sioux. Loved the early stuff. You're right about Savages.
A corker indeed...got Shellhunter and London Scouser coming over for two weeks...so i am sure there will be a lot of corking going on!
Glad you enjoyed the tune folks. Have a glass of Rioja for me Old Pa.
Yeah, they do sound like Siouxie, I suppose everything kinda gets re-hashed in some way. There's a song the Savages do about the suicide of Rommel, heavy....I'm looking out for that.
