ON THIS DAY ... in 1983 - VIRGIN PRUNES

37 photos from the Brixton Ace on April 6th 1983

VIRGIN PRUNES - DISCOGS

By 1983 VIRGIN PRUNES are a must-see band, a must-hear, which is probably just as well because after the stunning “If I Die, I Die” in 1982 you’d be waiting until 1986 for “The Moon Looked Down And laughed”. Energetic, evocative, explorative … lots of e-words. Vivacious, challenging, adorable and just a touch touched. One of a kind.
