Killer leftfield Indie number from New Fast Automatic Daffoldils. Big Baka is the mix to check. N.F.A.D. emerged from the burgeoning Manchester Indie scene in the late 80’s. Back then, three young men dreamed of forming a band – with Justin Crawford on bass, Dolan Hewison on guitar and Perry Saunders on drums. All that was missing was someone to sing and front the group. Legend has it, guitarist Dolan, had a vision one night of meeting a man who not only wore glasses and fell off his bike, but was also able to sing. And so, when Andy Spearpoint turned up to audition, wearing his specs and apologizing for his inability to stand up properly (as he'd just fallen off his bike), jaws dropped in unison. The name, New Fast Automatic Daffodils, was taken from an experiment by Liverpool poet Adrian Henri, who crossed a car maintenance manual with Wordsworth. After a few local gigs, percussionist Icarus Wilson-Wright joined the band in time to appear on this recording, their breakthrough single. Big (Baka) is the B side, kinda leftfield dance mix with wicked, cut up/transformed vocals. Check it.
