The origins of Flowers For Agatha are already from 1980 when the band was called Bleeding Hearts. Later they changed name and started recording tracks in 1985 for the 'The Thickest Head' 7" and 'The Freedom Curse' 12". Last release is the 'Foolish Young Old And Stupid' 12". The band folded around 1986-1987.
There are demo recordings too so there's plenty of material that could make a reissue on CD as the vinyl is quite hard to find these days.
There's a Flowers For Agatha fanpage on MySpace here.

I have their demos and some other unreleased trax--some great music.
The singles were evasive--thanks for ripping them.
The band may see re-release...word will spread when I know more.
That would be great Fritz.
i was gonna toss up the freedom curse 12'' soon, you beat me to it! these guys are pretty great. i didn't have the thickest head though, thanks for that one!
I just found out now that Jeremy Dyson of The League Of Gentlemen fame was once in Flowers For Agatha...
Your blog is one of my daily reads. It takes some reading to find all the really interesting stuff, but it's pretty good..
