In 1995, Edsel released Strange Locomotion/Siren, which contained two complete albums -- Strange Locomotion, originally released on Dandelion in 1969, and Siren, originally released on Elektra in 1971 -- by Kevin Coyne's first band, the eclectic British blues-rock group Siren, together on one compact disc. ~ Tim Sendra, All Music Guide
Dandelion label. Mick Gratton replaced Chichester on lead guitar for the second album, but soon afterwards the group disintegrated. Coyne made a further album for Dandelion, Case History, and later a series of albums for Virgin, which did not attract the attention they deserved. Many of Coyne's recordings were influenced by his experiences as a social therapist in a Preston psychiatric hospital and later, upon his move to London, as a social worker in Camden. Despite plugs by John Peel, neither Siren or Coyne's solo recordings sold well, although most are now sought-after by record collectors. They also recorded two 45s as Clague.
