Jangle pop cult heroes the Siddeleys formed in London in the spring of 1986 after singer/guitarist Johnny Johnson gave a tape of her home-recorded songs to fellow guitarist Allan Kingdom. After posting flyers seeking rhythm section recruits in the Rough Trade Shop, the Ladbroke Grove club ~Bay 63, and other area locales, Johnson and Kingdom inducted bassist Andrew Clark and drummer Phil Goodman prior to the Siddeleys' debut gig at ~the Clarendon Ballroom on December 1, 1986. Early the following year the group made its recorded debut with "Wherever You Go," one side of a flexi-disc included with the fanzine ~Trout Fishing in Leytonstone.
