7" - WASH 1 - 5/1987 - PS
1987 was the European Year of the Environment (EYE) and one of the
associated activities was something called National Washday (11 May).
A 7" single with this title was released during the year. I've no
idea what it was about -- perhaps it was intended to encourage
artists to bathe more often? Proceeds went to the Irish Youth
Foundation but in fact few copies appear to have been released.
There was also a free concert in St Stephens Green in Dublin.
