BMX Bandits
"Someone To Share My Life With"

The Clawfist Singles Club is a series in which "each band concerned covering the other's song". On the other side of this 1991 split single the TVPs do a n amazing Velvet Underground treatment to BMX Bandits' Your Class.

BMX Bandits
"Girl At The Bus Stop"

This is a bit of a mystery, as this song is credited to D.Treacy, yet nobody I know ever got to hear a TVPs version of this. Maybe Dan Treacy wrote it for them? Two delightful versions of this song are included on this 7 tracks 1992 mini titled Gordon Keen and His BMX Bandits.

Los Enemigos
"This Angry Silence"

Veteran rock'n'rollers Los Enemigos from Spain included "This Angry Silence" in their 6 tracks - all covers - mini LP Por La Sombra.

Four One And Only's
"In A Perfumed Garden"

Dutch band Four One And Only's covered TVPs' "In A Perfumed Garden" on their 1988 LP We Love You.

Further
"I Wanna Be A Stranger / They Said It Couldn't Happen Here... and It Didn't!"

This is not a TVPs cover, but this single's back sleeve is a tribute to TVPs' "And Don't The Kids Just Love It" back sleeve. It also states that "Paradise is for the sex obsessed, not for the blessed"... funny!. The song ends with the chorus of TVP's "Geoffrey Ingram" ("just like Geoffrey Ingram...").

The King Of Luxembourg
"A Picture Of Dorian Gray"

The King of ulta-sophisticate pop covered this TVPs classic on his debut album Royal Bastard, managing to retain the sheer simplicity of the song despite the complex arrangements (even if it sounds almost lo-fi for King of Luxembourg's standards!).

Those amongst you who prefer their records small and shiny can find this cover also on the CD compilation of Sir / Royal Bastard.
