Transvision Vamp Pop Art
Limited 180gm white colored vinyl LP pressing. Transvision Vamp were a genuine international pop supernova of the late '80s. Fronted by the irrepressible Wendy James - pop's very own Halo Jones - whose bad-girl charms were impossible to ignore, and informed by the musical vision of Nick Christian Sayer, their sound and look was a kaleidoscopic whirl of chunky guitar riffs, incandescent pop thrills, razor sharp choral hooks, and vivid comic-book imagery. They crashed the charts like a rock and roll wrecking ball, bagging Gold and Platinum-selling albums in a brief but spectacular reign. Charting in April 1988 with the punk-pop sound of their second single, a cover of Holly & The Italians' "Tell That Girl To Shut Up", the band followed this up with the Top 5 single "I Want Your Love" and # 4 debut album Pop Art, certified Gold. First single "Revolution Baby" is also included.
