Somewhere in the depths of my record collection I have an LP, a few singles and a Peel session 12 inch by the Redskins. Their modest aim was to "walk like The Clash and sound like The Supremes" and on some of their best tracks - like "Keep On Keeping On" they came pretty close.
Their 1986 album "Neither Washington Nor Moscow" actually stands the test of time really well - apart from the title of course. Perhaps "Neither Capital Nor Islam" would be more appropriate in 2006!
Just by chance today I came across a website devoted to the band - go here. There is a discussion forum, pictures, discography and the guy who runs it is supposed to be putting some MP3s of their final gig on the forum shortly.
