Also included is \"Bring On The Dancing Horses\", a single launched at the time in conjunction with Songs To Learn \u0026amp; Sing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the most acclaimed British rockers from the 1980s, this legendary band formed in Liverpool in 1978 and were forefathers of the neo-psychedelic movement. Their line up consisted of vocalist Ian McCulloch, guitarist Will Sergeant, bass player Les Pattinson and drummer Pete de Freitas, eventually replacing the original drum machine. The band's cult status eventually waned with mainstream success in 1983 after they scored a UK top 10 hit with \"The Cutter\" and attendant album Porcupine which hit #2 in the UK. 1984's album Ocean Rain is considered a landmark post-punk release, featuring the lead single \"The Killing Moon\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe band split in 1988 but regrouped in 1997, releasing an album in 2014 that was their first UK Top 40 entry since 1999. The band's popularity never quite made the same impact in the US as it did in Europe so they are ripe for rediscovery for anyone interested in bands such as Suede, Radiohead, Arcade Fire, Blur, Interpol and Oasis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide One\u003cbr\u003e1 Rescue\u003cbr\u003e2 The Puppet\u003cbr\u003e3 Do It Clean\u003cbr\u003e4 A Promise\u003cbr\u003e5 Back of Love\u003cbr\u003e6 The Cutter\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide Two\u003cbr\u003e1 Never Stop\u003cbr\u003e2 The Killing Moon - By Echo \u0026amp; the Bunnymen\u003cbr\u003e3 Silver\u003cbr\u003e4 Seven Seas\u003cbr\u003e5 Bring on the Dancing Horses\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AMS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42370801664134,"sku":"RHI25360.1","price":24.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0088\/2959\/9806\/files\/echo-and-the-bunnymen-songs-to-learn.jpg?v=1754670423","url":"https:\/\/www.parasolrecords.com\/products\/echo-the-bunnymen-songs-to-learn-sing-lp","provider":"Parasol Mail Order","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
