The Blue Aeroplanes – Jacket Hangs - 2006 Digital Remaster
Biography
The original core of the band included Langley’s brother John on drums, Nick Jacobs on guitar, and multi-instrumentalist Dave Chapman. However, personnel other than Langley has varied, and (on both records and in performances) they have always been augmented by a large cast of semi-regular sidemen. (By the time of their 1991 album, Beatsongs, the Aeroplanes’ lineup included guitarist Angelo Bruschini, guitarist Rodney Allen, bassist Andy McCreeth, drummer Paul Mulreany, and guitarist/keyboard player Alex Lee, with another eight musicians listed in the credits.) The group released Bop Art on the Abstract Records label in April 1984, then signed to Fire Records, for which they recorded their second album, Tolerance (October 1986), and their third, Spitting Out Miracles (1987), plus several EPs. Spitting Out Miracles was their first U.S. release, followed by the compilation album Friendloverplane (1988), a double LP on Fire in the U.K. that was reduced to a single LP on Restless in the U.S. The Blue Aeroplanes then signed to the Ensign division of Chrysalis Records and charted in the U.K.

Only 16,630 listeners? That's bordering on criminally underrated if you ask me.

I'm trying to find a copy of their cover of Sweet Jane to hear if it is as good as I remember it being. I used to have it cassette a long time ago.

Rodney tried to pass me his guitar (at the front of the crowd), mid-gig once at Liverpool Poly, a bouncer grabbed it off me and hit me on the head with it. Happy days.

Never stopped liking the BAs since I was let out to watch live music in Bristol and found them at the tender age of 18! And they're still banging 'em out true as ever.
