A favourite of mine is ‘Hayfever’ – the first single from second album ‘I’ve Seen Everything’.
A sing-a-long tune with clever melodies and lyrics. I love the reference to Moscow. Being from Ayrshire I appreciated the humour.
‘Hayfever’ was the first TCS single to grace the UK charts, entering at No.61 in April of ’93, and leaving – in a blaze of glory – a week later.

This special limited edition collectors’ box was designed to hold the ‘Hayfever’ CD single, ‘I’ve Seen Everything’ CD album, ‘I’ve Seen Everything’ CD single.
The final CD that should have completed the box was the planned ‘Bloodrush’ single, but this was only ever released as a US promo, therefore the anchor on the spine of these CDs was incomplete.

Released in the UK only as a 1-track radio promo, ‘All The Dark Horses’ was surprisingly the only single from fourth album ‘Weightlifting’.

An un-official release, it consists of two main shows from Queens’ College, Cambridge UK on March 3 1993, and from Club Quattro in Tokyo Japan on September 22 1996. There are three additional songs from Club Quattro from September 21st of the same year.
Both recordings are excellent quality, coming from soundboard tape and DAT.
You’ll notice that the spine of the CD includes the final piece of the anchor image which accompanied the ‘I’ve Seen Everything’ releases. The liner notes give a brief history of the band including a ‘TCS Family Tree’.
The CD’s are named ‘Over The Moon’ and ‘Under The Influence’ – taken from the song ‘Easy Read’.
