Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

TRAVIS in the Gardens?

There have been a number of groups that have lived a spell in Harringay, I always believed Travis spent time in the Gardens, I'm sure I heard an interview where Haringey/Harringay? Was mentioned. Having seen the back sleeve image, I was very excited at the time, (having lived in Portland gardens from 94-97.) 'Good Feeling' was released in 1997, but was it just a convenient location for a shoot, or is it somewhere else? it looks so familiar.

The sleeve Photography is by Scarlet Page, & I remember thinking why didn't we think of that, as a house of visual arts post grad's?

Today of all days as I just I found the album in Marie Curie for £1.50, result! I could only afford singles through the 90's, so catching up. This year is significant celebrating 25 years of live music in London for me, & there's always a tale to tell.



So anyone recognise the house?

Judging by the pattern of the garden wall, this is the top end of Chesterfield Gardens

I thought you meant the builders merchant were moving into the Garrdens.

Must have been inspired by B&Q moving into the old Holloway Road Post Office (and that's a fact).

They did indeed live in Chesterfield Gardens, circa 1996-97, in a house rented from Brian Thomas estate agents. Scarlet Page is the daughter of Jimmy Page, incidentally...
