Who else was that memorable? Sugardrive? Just Jinger?

Squeal! I watched Amersham, Just Jinger, Sugardive and a few others I can't recall live in the 90s

Man, I wish I still had my Squeal and Amersham albums! Anyone got them still?

There was another band which was pretty cool if anyone remembers them, Arapaho.

Then was it Cherries for Cannibals? Female led band?

I still have Squeal - Long pig and an Amersham album (I cant recall the name of the album now). Brilliant stuff.

Andrew has mentioned most of the ones I can recall, but Lithium and the Nude girls will always be tops for me. Anyone remember The Led?

Yes, the band was called Black Diamond and a chick named Helene Henn was the vocalist. People used to get confused between Black Diamond and The Diamond Dogs (whom I played for back then).

I remember The Awakening. The vocals were unbelievably good.
Battery 9 was a favourite of mine while at school.
I also remember The Flying Circus. Still have their CD Favourite Jinx. The signed copy I had sadly got lost.
