Send No Flowers

Send No Flowers were a Liverpool indie band from 1981 to 1983 featuring Lin Sangster (on guitar and vocals), Jake Wakstein (on drums), Paul Sangster (on bass), and Timmo O’Shea (on guitar). They had songs on two compilation cassettes (“Adventures In Reality” and “Index #2″) before signing to the Praxis label (the label that also released The Balcony). It appears they released just one 7″ “Playing For Time” b/w “Wall of Convention” and “One More Day” before calling it a day. Lyn Sangster and Jake Wakstein both went on to form the band, Kit, and Paul Sangster went on to play sessions in The High Five.
==Links to Peel==
Send No Flowers were one of the many Liverpool bands that Peel invited to do sessions for his radio programmes. After 1983, the band were largely forgotten by Peel until 1989 when he revisited them after hearing that some of its members later joined Kit, a band that he also played on his radio programmes.
