Originally released in 1982, 'They Could Have Been Bigger Than The Beatles' was the influential band's third album. A collection of singles, demos, outtakes and rarities that was intended to mark the band's breakup in 1982, had they not got back together again so soon. This 2024 reissue comes with faithfully restored artwork, from one the album's original hand painted sleeves.
The record features 'David Hockney's Diaries', 'The Boy In The Paisley Shirt' and 'Psychedelic Holiday'. With the formidable Daniel Treacy at its core, Television Personalities remain one of new wave's longest serving and seminal artists, with a career spanning over three decades. The indie pop visionaries have influenced many people across the industry including Pavement, The Lemonheads, Fat White Family, MGMT and Creation Records' Alan McGee.
