“The hungry socks where indeed described as a reverse super group in the press. Most notably they featured Mani [later of the roses and Primal Scream ] Clint boon [ Inspiral carpets] Chris Goodwin [ the High] Andy Housley [Craig Gannons The Cradle] and Martin Swinburne [Swinny] later of The Birdroom and Anderson ] They gigged frequently around the Northwest and more recently some interest has been shown in releasing some live material from the time .”
