Label GB

Hurrah! was a UK PostPunk IndieRock band that emerged in the 1980s and continued their musical journey into the early 1990s. Known for their unique sound and captivating performances, they left an indelible mark on the music scene of that era.
With influences ranging from One Thousand Violins to The Pale Fountains, Hurrah! carved out their own distinct place in the industry. Their music resonated with fans who appreciated their catchy melodies, heartfelt lyrics, and energetic live shows.
During their active years, Hurrah! shared stages with notable acts such as The Jasmine Minks, Microdisney, and The Chesterfields. Their discography includes memorable tracks like "Sweet Sanity" and "Hip Hip". Although they disbanded many years ago, their legacy lives on through their timeless music.

Precious Recordings of London is an independent label and record company based in Putney, London, UK. Led by former horse racing journalist Nick Godfrey, this label specializes in releasing "historical" BBC radio sessions on double 7"-vinyl. The name of the label is inspired by the song "Let's Make This Precious" by The Weddoes.

On vinyl for the first time, this is the only BBC session ever recorded by legendary 1980s indie pioneers Hurrah!, featuring an early version of their fabled second single ‘Hip Hip’ alongside three more bursts of immaculate guitar pop. Gatefold seven-inch double vinyl comes with a set of five postcards – first 350 copies signed by Paul Handyside and Taffy Hughes, who have also provided sleeve notes. Postcards also feature excerpts from the Kitchenware fanzine and a Bleddyn Butcher photo; Bleddyn also did the cover. And download codes, of course.
