Revolutionary Spirit

About Revolutionary Spirit

The Wild Swans formed in 1980 when singer Paul Simpson left The Teardrop Explodes, the band signed to Bill Drummond and David Balfe's Zoo Records. They released only one record, the single 'Revolutionary Spirit' the labels last ever release.

What's interesting

This incarnation of the Wild Swans had performed the perfect act of one-upmanship releasing a record of such brilliance and then disbanding; a decision which makes this magnificent record all the more curious and compelling.
