From South Wales, here come the 60ft Dolls, 3 notorious drunken hellraisers with an ear for a catchy tune. The best 'Britpop' band that weren't Brits. Their debut 7"; Happy Shopper is a top tune of theirs. The tale of a cross dressing conspicuous consumer of commodity culture, a great Heartbreaker Clash of Jam punk. Errm a bit like The Enemy but eleven years earlier. This is the CD re-release of Happy Shopper, which unfortunately includes a cover of a Beatles number, Everybodys Got Something To Hide (Except Me And My Monkey) but fortunately it is saved by another great number of their own; Dr Rat. Enjoy.
