Rare BCG Video of 1988 Performance of Hemingway LIVE!!!
BIO
In 1988 Blue Clocks Green released their first 7 inch single called "Hemingway" The minor success led to a 12 Inch version with various mixes. The 12 Inch Single of "Hemingway" received airplay on over 150 college and alternative radio stations throughout the US and went number 1 and top ten on several dozen. But do due the graphic lyrics, the song was banned by many stations and college radio administrators, which ironically established and solidified it’s underground cult status.
A follow-up original called "Save Yourself Then The World" was released on vinyl in 1990. The song received considerabe airplay, but with no official album out, the band fell under the radar of record execs now looking to capitalize on the new grunge sound exploding out of Seatle.
