This is one of "Detour Records" proudest moments….Not only was the Clique the biggest sellers on the 'Detour Records', BUT this is our 100th LP release on the label and what a release to celebrate this milestone and we have pushed the (Ropey old) boat out and made something very special as each box set comes with a set of five different postcards, poster and comes housed in a very stylish hand numbered box. 35 years after London modsters The Clique burst onto the music scene and 25 years after the final Clique EP was released, Detour Records and the band are proud to present a vinyl box set anthology of their music.
The Clique were prolific throughout the late 80s and 90s, constantly gigging in London, up and down the UK and over in Europe.
It wasn’t just their music that made them stand out from their contemporaries but also their impeccable and stylish dress sense.
This box set collection includes many alternate recordings to previous releases and some unreleased tracks. Through the 3 albums you can track the musical progression of one of the 90s mod scene’s most distinctive bands; from their early obscure beat covers through to their own self written tracks, some of which have since been covered and released by other bands.
DETOUR RECORDS Would like to thank all the band members who played their part in this very special band that is closed to our heart and all the photographers who allowed us permission to use their photos. Lastly I would like to thank Dom who spent many hours doing all the artwork and to his wife Claire who was the driving force and went above and beyond in keeping this release on track and drawing it all together.
