Spin-off group of the Virgin Prunes.
From 1987-1991 they released three albums:
Lite Fantastik in 1988
Nada in 1989
Blossoms and Blood in 1991
When the Virgin Prunes split in 1986, Dave-Id Busarus, Mary and Strongman continued as The Prunes. They were inevitably compared to the former band and some felt the absence of Gavin and Guggi more than others, but The Prunes were a different proposition and the three elpees on the bands Baby imprint via New Rose were generally well received. They used guest musicians as and when the need arose. Barry Warner joined as vocalist for a period and recorded at least one Dave Fanning Session with them but he does not appear on any of the bands releases. Besides the Fanning Session, there are at least two studio recordings featuring Barry on vocals which have yet to see the light of day. Robbie Gilbert (ex Panic) played drums for a while. The Prunes finally settled on an expanded lineup in 1990 with Justin of Mutant Asylum on guitar and Kolm Bolm (AKA Colm O’ Maonlaí, brother of Liam O’ Maonlaí of Hothouse Flowers) on drums. Both appear on the bands final album "Blossom And Blood". Justin went on to form Gormanghast.
