"Detour
Records"
Come and CELEBRATE our 100th LP release
with us and what a release it is. This is a PURE CLASSIC from a band that were
huge and were our BIGGEST seller on the label and should have gone on to bigger
things but sadly didn't fulfill their dreams. They came so close and were
courted by Bjorks record label 'One Little Indian' but it wasn't to be..
I can't believe that we have finally got this release
out, many many years in the planning and hurdles to jump but we did it!
This is one of "Detour Records" proudest
moments....Not only was the Clique the biggest sellers on the 'Detour Records',
BUT this
is our 100th
LP release on the label and what a release to celebrate this milestone and we
have pushed the (Ropey old) boat out and made something very special as each
box set comes with a set of five different postcards, poster and comes housed
in a very stylish hand numbered box.
35 years after London modsters The Clique burst onto the
music scene and 25 years after the final Clique EP was released, Detour Records
and the band are proud to present a vinyl box set anthology of their music.
The Clique were prolific throughout the late 80s and 90s,
constantly gigging in London, up and down the UK and over in Europe.
It wasn’t just their music that made them stand out from
their contemporaries but also their impeccable and stylish dress sense.
This box set collection includes many alternate
recordings to previous releases and some unreleased tracks. Through the 3
albums you can track the musical progression of one of the 90s mod scene’s most
distinctive bands; from their early obscure beat covers through to their own
self written tracks, some of which have since been covered and released by
other bands.
DETOUR RECORDS Would like to thank
all the band members who played their part in this very special band that is
closed to our heart and all the photographers who allowed us permission to use
their photos.
Lastly I would like to thank Dom who spent many hours
doing all the artwork and to his wife Claire
who was the driving force and went above and beyond in keeping this release on
track and drawing it all together.
