KATRINA AND THE WAVES - Shock Horror! The Waves LP 82 w Walking On Sunshine LP 83 w st LP 85

REPOST Request:  What I wrote before:  Now is the time (summer) to post these treasures I found all together last year.  She almost sounds like a solo member of the Cocteau Twins on the first album before the big hit.  Some redone tunes.  Also will say here to save time from reposting that I reposted The Temptations, Saga, The Bob Segarini Collection, SWITCH and The Waitresses (search in above left box on blog).  

Per Discogs:  Rock group from Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, England, active from 1981 to 1999.

'The Waves' is a name derived from a band Alex Cooper and Kimberley Rew were part of in the mid-70's.

Their recognition began to grow when the Bangles covered 'Going Down To Liverpool', and reached its peak in 1985 with their bouncy pop hit 'Walking On Sunshine', which is the song associated with them.

While the band continued recording and headlining concerts until their eventual breakup in 1999, even their 1997 Eurovision Song Contest (UK) win for 'Love Shine a Light' didn't stop them from being continually regarded as a one-hit wonder.
