Bio:

Chrome Yellow were a quintet based in the UK led by two Dubliners, Joe Caprani and Bres Shelly, who sounded like a couple of folky buskers backed by Japan. While this doesn't exactly make them "acid folk" (except in the minds of a certain type of rare record dealer), their unusual LP certainly fits somewhere in the neo-psych universe.

Caprani and Shelly had previously been in a band called Spiral Scratch (great name) who supported the godawful Depeche Mode at the RDS ca 1986.

Chrome Yellow also ran a studio (Lada Studios) where they recorded and produced other bands.

Their record is worth hearing. More details about this interesting band appreciated.
