Nov. Artist LP is Do-Ré-Mi; led by Deborah Conway (lead vocals) with Dorland Bray (drums, percussion, backing vocals), Helen Carter (bass, backing vocals) and Stephen Philip (guitars); this 2nd album was a big love in 1988. A fierce, distinctive band.

5️⃣ Haunt You

The 4th single skimmed the top 100 at #91, a very late 80s quasi-alternative tune reminding me alternately of The Smiths, early Hunters and Collectors and R.E.M with its guitars, inviting grooves and ominous drums.

6️⃣ Desert Song

Deborah’s voice is supreme on this bluesy country-tinged song which crosses a few genre styles and which, for some reason, brings some Eurythmics vibes to me, maybe the vocal echo notes deep in the track.

7️⃣ Wild and Blue

A rollicking tune that the band does so well;
a lyrical adventure i am still to resolve but a joyous song.
