Siouxsie & The Banshees - Join Hands (1979)
I was really prepared to hate this record. This was one of those Siouxsie & The Banshees records I had never given the time of day.

Siouxsie Sioux is in fine voice and John McGeoch (ex Magazine guitarist) is now fully ensconced in the band.
It’s great to revisit this stuff with the realisation that this group were well ahead of the pack. They were also probably fully responsible for launching The Cure’s career.
