Shop Assistants were a Scottish indie pop band from Edinburgh, Scotland, formed in 1984, initially as Buba & the Shop Assistants. After achieving success with independent releases they signed to Chrysalis Records sublabel Blue Guitar, releasing their only album in 1986. After splitting in 1987, with singer Alex Taylor moving on to the Motorcycle Boy, they reformed for two further singles in 1990.
