Yep. But oddly the highest profile offshoots were the Bangles, who were
massive in the mid to late eighties, and Mazzy, who became big much later
in the mid nineties.  I don't think most people connect those two bands in
their minds, and most people have also never even heard of the other
Paisley bands.  It's a shame, really.  I'd have to class at least Days of
Wine and Roses and Emergency Third Rail Power Trip as stone cold classic
albums, with quite a few serious contenders from the other bands involved...
