All Hail The Daffodil

Very smart clean vinyl with a good cover has 1cm rub in centre of the spine and small split on top seam.

Comprised of members Donna Savage (vocals), Biddy Leyland (keyboards), Wendy Kjestrup (guitar), Jenny Renals (bass), and Frances Gant (drums), '80s alt-rockers Dead Famous People hailed from New Zealand. The group built a following in their homeland with independent releases and eventually decided to relocate to the U.K., resulting in the release of their best-known release, the mini album Arriving Late in Torn and Filthy Jeans in 1989. Despite fast-turning heads in London due to their live shows, the group split up in 1990, with Leyland and Savage embarking on solo careers (Savage also guested on Saint Etienne's version of the Field Mice song "Let's Kiss and Make Up"). A final Dead Famous People release came a few years later in the form of All Hail the Daffodil, a collection of tunes that the quintet was working on just prior to their split.

Dead Famous People are a New Zealand indie pop band formed in Auckland, active from the latter half of the 1980s onward. Dead Famous People are still active today, Savage using various collaborators, with a new album being recorded in Auckland New Zealand, following an extended break taken to raise her son, Harry.
