Are these current day imposters of the legend that were the original The Lucid Dream in the halcyon days of 1991

this is The Lucid Dream from Carlisle
The Lucid Dream join Fruits de Mer with a 7" single, combining their epic track, 'Hits Me Like I'm Stoned' with a cover of a lovely slice of 60s psych, Factory's 'Try A Little Sunshine' - The Lucid Dream produce "beautiful traditional psychedelia" (so said Lauren Laverne on BBC6) and they do it for FdM with an all-new, mind-blowing A-side b/w a great 60s cover.
....and here's an excerpt from 'Try A Little Sunshine'....
worth checking out

Interesting that the NEW Lucid Dream are from Carlisle

The OLD Lucid Dream co-supported the Bunnymen on their 1991 UK Tour with The Twiggs who came from ........ Carlisle

Could the NEW Lucid dream of got their name supplied by one of The Twiggs and I see Twigg has been posted on this link?

Interesting.... or is it just a coincidence?

All gets very confusing doesn't it.

Time to get Sherlock involved!

Or is it like the old Lucid Dream left one by one to replaced by new members who are now the new Lucid dream and so it's still the same band!!!! they just now perform without any original members

Just like Dr Feelgood !!!!!!!!!!

I'd like to hear the old Lucid Dream. So those videos are NOT the old one?
1991 is old?

I don't have an opinion on which is better but the guys playing in TGOGP's video are quite the musical talents. Especially that drummer!

I saw the Bunnymen on final two nights of that 1991 UK Tour at The Bordeline, I remember The Twiggs played first night, The Lucid Dream on the last.

Did anyone else get to see either band on the Tour? Both were pretty damn good acts. The Twiggs were more laid back.

Both acts played at the Euphoric Records (Bunnymen label) launch party in liverpool. Didn't get to that one though. A good era that. Loved that Bunnymen era, 'Reverberation' LP etc.

The Lucid Dream however were a full on show, manic. Really going for it. Excellent live act. Really garagey. I remember they covered 13th Floor Eleavators 'Levitation' that night and the Bunnymen 'Reverberation'. Also TLD covered 'Going All The Way' psych garage classic from the Pebbles Compilations by The Squires.

Whatever happened to The Lucid Dream ?????

Even with the internet - there is so much good music out there that we will never know about.

At least we have Brittany and The Spice Girls. Wait! Did I just come up with an awesome new group?
