The six issues of Clare’s old fanzine, Kvatch, starting with #1 in the top left, which came out in 1984 when she was 16, and moving round clockwise to #6 (bright red title lettering), which is the one that had the Sea Urchins/Groove Farm flexi.

Sha-la-la and Kvatch flexidiscs
These were the flexidiscs we released with our fanzines prior to setting up Sarah; the Sea Urchins appeared on two flexis, one with Kvatch (Cling Film), one with Sha-la-la (Summershine). The Orchids, Talulah Gosh and Poppyheads also had Sha-la-la releases (From This Day, I Told You So and the Postcard for Flossy EP respectively). It was important that all the flexis came in proper sleeves; they were throwaway, but weren’t meant to be thrown away. (In case you’re wondering, Sha-la-la was a flexdisc label, with the discs distributed via various fanzines, chiefly Are You Scared To Get Happy?, Simply Thrilled, Baby Honey and Trout Fishing in Leytonstone.)
