Saw them live at the Irish centre in Leeds, years ago. I'd heard an album at a friend's house and went to buy it, I'd forgotten the name of the album and proceeded to buy all they had produced... The gig was totally amazing!!
Their music has appeared in a number of movies, most notably "Malcolm" - an Australian movie from the 80s and "Oskar und Leni" a German movie from the 1990s. Their biggest hit was appearing in "Napoleon Dynamite". So yes, they are everywhere!
But what a legacy ! I still enjoy the PCO as if it was happening today, a never ending source of inspiration. I love every one of them. I think Simon had a good hand at picking the right people for this band. That's another great achievement.

Didn't they do the soundtrack to Lost Highway?! JUST KiDDING. I'm just discovering their music, and I'm in love. ❤

Sad such a nice person had to die so young.
It was a great loss…

Hello Darren, no experience with this hand so will watch this first to get better accustomed
*band*
That’s why I’m posting it. Given up being a good boy on UA-cam, so instead I’m trying to convert you lot.
Does anyone know if the PCO toured with those background films or was this created just for this broadcast? Thanks!
Just done for the show I believe.
