25 years ago, 15 October 1996, EVAN DANDO and his LEMONHEADS
released their seventh, critically praised, album CAR BUTTON CLOTH.
Here’s sensitive single IF I COULD TALK I’D TELL YOU.
Dando: “That song comes from when I would lose my voice and
I couldn’t talk, so I would write down, ‘If I could talk I’d tell you.’
I wrote that down once, and I thought, That’s a good title for
a song.”
