Five Hungry Joes – A pictorial archive of the Trashcan Sinatras. Legendary Scottish Band

Issue No.59 of Les Inrockuptibles includes a 3-page interview with TCS to promote ‘A Happy Pocket’.

Les Inrockuptibles is a French art criticism magazine. The magazine was instrumental in popularising indie rock music with bands such as The Smiths and The House of Love. They produced several tribute records, including the influential ‘I’m Your Fan’ to Leonard Cohen in 1991 and ‘The Smiths Is Dead’ in 1996.

I’m no use at French but the big intro paragraph (see pic below) goes along the lines of…

“Lost in their dark corner of Scotland, the Trash Can Sinatras never had the occasion to shine otherwise than on their discs…”

I couldn’t have put it better myself.
