Birmingham 81 · 23 · 19h ago And here’s Don’t Sing on 12”. The book has an insightful chapter about the pivotal role that the single played in the history of Prefab Sprout #WeekendSingles
Pete Mckee · 3 · 19h ago it was the song that got me into PS. seemed like a slice of magic unlike any other song at the time. also love the early singles that didn’t appear on Swoon.
pmpb166.bsky.social · 1 · 18h ago Mainly been a dipper in their catalogue but Don’t Sing has always been a favourite. Sounds slightly off kilter which always grabs my attention when I hear it.
Trevor Palmer · 1 · 18h ago My only PS single 😐 but I do own all of the albums. Saw Martin solo recently - very entertaining and good fun.

Yes, looking forward to reading it. I keep hoping Uncut will do a Prefab Sprout special magazine. Maybe one day.
Don lets played some prefab sprout on his 6 music show last night and at least 1 cracking cover version
can recommend the book a most enjoyable read
I have the book on order, but it’s going to take a while before it’s available here in NZ
I’ll be buying it , great writer on a great band .
I saw them live on the Jordan tour in Glasgow , what a show that was . ❤️
