On this date in 1981, The Associates released their fourth single, "Tell Me Easter's On Friday". It was backed by "Straw Towels". The A side appeared on their second album, Fourth Drawer Down. The B side was not but was added as a bonus track on the album when it was re-released on CD. The Edinburgh, Scotland new wave band disbanded in 1990 after four albums but re-formed a few years later. The band affectively ended with the death of Billy MacKenzie in 1997.

About: The original Post Punk Progressive Pop Party (The P5) aired every Saturday night on 88.7FM WVHC (now WRHU) Radio Hofstra University in Hempstead, New York. Back in 1978, WVHC was among the first outlets (public or commercial) in the United States to promote what became the New Wave movement. This blog is a tribute to that show and all of the great music it exposed us to.
