    T'Spoon Sweetness / School Dance

    Athens Of The North
    • T'Spoon – School Dance
    • T'Spoon – Sweetness
    • 1. School Dance
    • 2. Sweetness

    For us it's all about "Sweetness" - absolutely gorregous, trippy soul bullet! 

    The originals are impossible to find even for hardened collectors, trust us when they do turn up they are always beat. Billy released two 45s on this label both great so here is out first one which takes a track from each, solid stuff.
