Been sent this original poster to use in the retrospectic Crow People LP/CD we’re planning. Currently working on old unreleased studio recordings. Crow People were a marvellous band hailing from Doncaster in the late 80s that never got the recognition their music deserved. More news as we have it.

Chopper recording the ‘Said And Done’ EP with Neville Barker at Underground Sound, Ossett - 23 April 1994. We’d been expecting four songs off the demo, but they turned up with four new songs written specially. We loved the new songs, but there are some great songs that never saw the light of day.

Dave Chopper selling Crackle 001 at the Duchess Offspring gig Sept 94. A lot of time and effort went into the poster advertising it… This gig was rammed, with people trying to climb in through the windows beforehand as the Offspring had just broken big with ‘Smash’. Note the door labelled ‘DOOR’.
