A spin-off from the Funboy Five, Milkshake Melon (a person not a band) first appeared as a contributor to a compilation indie cassette called Lizards In Your Lounge, issued in 1980, with an instrumental track called Walk Don’t Melon. Following the break-up of the Funboy Five, Milkshake Melon reworked recent material written for that band and composed completely new songs that eventually became half of the album, Very Hush! Hush! a retrospective set shared with the Funboy Five. Milkshake Melon appears on the Messthetics #101 compilation CD, D.I.Y London 1977-81, with What Did You Do With The Body? and also, on the ‘enhanced’ version of the same CD, with Have You Ever Seen a Whale? (incorrectly titled there as Have You Seen A Whale?) User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
