THE TEARDROP EXPLODES

 

 

From Liverpool, England.  Led by Julian Cope (vocals), Gary Dwyer (drums) and David Balfe (keyboards).  A heavily influential band that was sometimes referred to in the press as "Liverpool's psychedelic hope".  Cope would continue on as a popular artist after the group split.  Early member Paul Simpson would later have success with his band The Wild Swans.  Interestingly the band never had a permanent lead guitarist!  1979-81.
