A FLOCK OF SEAGULLS
A Flock of Seagulls are an English new wave and synthpop band originally formed in 1980 in Liverpool by Michael “Mike” Score (keyboards, vocals) and his brother Alister “Ali” James Score (drums); with their most famous line-up consisting of the Score brothers along with Francis Lee “Frank” Maudsley (bass) and Paul Reynolds (guitar). The group had a string of international hit singles including “I Ran (So Far Away)” (1982), “Space Age Love Song” (1982), “Wishing (If I Had a Photograph of You)” (1982), and “The More You Live, the More You Love” (1984). The band won a Grammy Award in 1983. (More from Wikipedia)
An Emotional Fish, An Emotional Fish – Despite the odd name (hardly any band names start with “a” or “an”, other than A Flock of Seagulls – perhaps they got the idea from the 1988 hit film A Fish Called Wanda?), this is probably the best album that I got that day.
