For 35th anniversary of "Reading, Writing and Arithmetic" !
On 15 January 1990, The Sundays released their brilliant debut album “Reading, Writing and Arithmetic” featuring "Here's Where the Story Ends" "Can't Be Sure" and "You're Not the Only One I Know".
It is hard to believe over 32 years have come and gone since Harriet Wheeler of The Sundays angelic voice parted the clouds of late 80’s musical cant. The Sundays released the much beloved and treasured Reading, Writing and Arithmetic in January of 1990. The album was one of the first portends of the promise that would reveal itself in the indie/alt musical world throughout the ’90s. The album was a perfect reflection of post-grad student life circa 1990. Few at the time realized that the band was spinning pure gold that would be an encapsulation of nostalgia for that fleeting time in between college graduation and becoming a responsible adult. That period of life when everything seems possible and in contrast, there seem to be no new frontiers to conquer.
