Strawberry Switchblade Photos & Covers

Strawberry Switchblade was a pop group from Glasgow that was once a four-piece but by the time they had a couple hits in 1985, there were down to the duo of Rose McDowall and Jill Bryson (Janice Goodlett & Carole McGowan left behind). They broke up in 1986. I first came across their music at Murmur Records in Orlando in 1985 and haven't heard any other band with a sound like theirs.
