Album Notes & Community Reviews

Propelled to immense global fame on the back of smash hits like 'She Drives Me Crazy' and 'Good Thing', this sophomore record perfectly encapsulates the stylish, eclectic spirit of late 80s British pop. Roland Gift's distinctively raw falsetto provides a charismatic centerpiece to the band's slickly produced blend of Northern soul nostalgia and modern dance-rock rhythms. It became a defining multi-platinum sensation before the group quietly dissolved.
