This is quite a holy grail for many indiepop fans. The über obscure Ate Guitarists Later that released a wonderful 7″ in the 80s or early 90s.

The 7″ with a sleeve that had a cartoon of some guy looking up had two songs, “Things are Looking Up” and “Magdalene Lane”. Yes, the cartoon makes sense with the name of the song. Very literal.

The back of the sleeve gives a little bit more info. Seems that this was a solo project. All musical chores are credited to Jim Goldolphin. The sleeve is credited to Steve Spear and A. Hall.

The label was Godol Records. And there’s an address in Keyham, Plymouth, Devon, UK.

And that’s all really. I know there’s almost no information about this band/project. But I am hopeful that this post will help find out more details. Maybe someday. Anyone can help?
