I'll be the first to admit, my knowledge of the Au Pairs is limited, no make that very limited. The only Au Pairs track that I own is 'Come Again' as it appeared on the 'Urgh A Music War' compilation. I do know that they were part of a UK scene that after punk gave music a political injection... along with the likes of Gang of Four. Well, now they are back (or at least a version of the Au Pairs, lead by Leslie Woods) and they sound pretty good, especially so in this excellent recording of the band's gig last week in Venlo (thanks Peter for the share!).
Whilst the rights row continues to rage between Woods and the other original members of the band, she has drawn a collection of musicians around her who do credit to the music.
The Au Pairs have recently completed dates with The Skids and are playing headline dates in the UK in the Spring.
