“(I realise the photos have been posted here by Julia herself!)”

“The photo on the stairs, with Julia Nagle, Steve Hanley, MES, Karl Burns, Brix Smith-Start and Lucy Rimmer may or may not have appeared in the Manchester Evening News, but it definitely did appear in the NME of 3 February 1996. See thefall.org/news/pics/96feb03_nme/96f.... It is credited to Hayley Madden.”

“This is a 1980 interview, the year Leigh left the group and the year Totales Turns was released (the Rough Trade live lp mentioned). Also, he joined in 1979. So can't be a 1978 fanzine.”
