MO-DETTES

LP

The Story So Far

RECORD STORE DAY

2019

Limited Edition

Originally released in 1980 on Deram Records (a

division of Decca), this is the first time this seminal

UK post-punk album has been reissued on vinyl.

The Mo-dettes were an all-female band, formed in

1979 by guitarist Kate Korris (The Slits), Jane

Crockford (Bank of Dresden), Ramona Carlier

(Kleenex) and June Miles-Kingston. They were in the

heart of the late '70s London art, film & punk scene

with some of the members assisting Malcolm

McLaren on the set of the film, The Great Rock ‘n’

Roll Swindle, as well as living in a community squat

with Joe Strummer and Sid Vicious. Their branding

was eye catching too, perhaps helping to pull in a

wider audience, or it could have been influenced

some of the band members’ art backgrounds too.

The album features a version of The Rolling Stones

Paint It Black, a remake of their debut single White

Mice (renamed White Mice Disco), plus a cover of

Edith Piaf’s Milord, along with other original penned

songs. The band toured for four years and they

supported two-tone ska bands such as Madness

and The Specials before breaking up finally in 1982.

When the members went their separate ways, many

continued to work and be associated with artists

such as Fun Boy Three, Everything But the Girl and

The Communards.
