The Dylans - Mary Quant In Blue (Japan Promo)

THE DYLANS
Mary Quant In Blue (Japan Promo)
1992 Situation Two / Alfa Records

The Dylans were baggy band from Sheffield. The band was formed in early 1990 by former 1,000 Violins guitarist, songwriter, and occasional singer Colin Gregory, now on bass guitar, Jim Rodger (guitar), and Andy Curtis (guitar). They soon recruited Quentin Jennings (keyboards) and Garry Jones (drums), continuing 1,000 Volins sixties-tinged retro style, but with a nod to the “baggy” scene of the time. The band were signed to Beggars Banquet Records’ “indie” subsidiary Situation Two (RCA Records in the United States), who released their debut single, “Godlike” in January 1991, which reached the top 10 of the UK Indie Chart. They subsequently replaced Curtis with Andy Cook, and released follow-up singles “Lemon Afternoon” and “Planet Love”, before the band’s Stephen Street-produced self-titled debut album was released in October 1991. After extensive touring, the band returned in 1992 with the “Mary Quant in Blue” single, but further line-up changes ensued, with Jones and Jennings leaving, to be replaced by Craig Scott and Mike Glover. With interest in the band growing in the United States, the band were signed to Atlantic Records, moving to the main Beggars Banquet roster in the UK for subsequent releases. Two further singles were followed by the band’s swansong 1994 album, Spirit Finger. In the face of disappointing sales, the band split later that year.
