Out Now:
THE OGDENS -
HELLISH MAD RUSH
The Ogdens were
formed in 1986 by Jon Fagg, Andrew Milton, John Phillips and Vince Woodward.
Vince left Britain to live in the US and John Devenney (JD) joined in 1987.
Karen Andrews was with the band for a year or so on trumpet.
The band released three singles, the first of which was Single of the Week in
the NME in 1988. John Peel regularly played the band’s songs on his show and
his special selection for the BBC World Service. Their third single “She Made
Everything Groovy” was produced by Pete Overend Watts of Mott the Hoople. Over
the years, the band played tours across the country in venues such as the ICA
(on the same bill as the Stone Roses), the Marquee and The Mean Fiddler.
The group have never formally disbanded and their records and memorabilia still
turn up regularly on ebay.
After almost 20
years here finally comes their debut-album on Firestation Records with 22 great
songs, including all singles, never released tracks, some demos and live
recordings. You can buy HELLISH MAD RUSH direct
on this website, on ebay and other onlineshops or at your local record dealer
(distribution in Germany/ Austria/ Switzerland by ALIVE).
