Label GB

Prefab Sprout is an English pop band hailing from Witton Gilbert, County Durham. They achieved great success in the 1980s with seven of their albums reaching the UK Top 30.
Formed in [year], Prefab Sprout quickly gained popularity for their unique sound and catchy melodies. Led by singer-songwriter Paddy McAloon, the band's music seamlessly blends elements of pop, rock, and new wave.
With their infectious hooks and intelligent lyrics, Prefab Sprout became a staple of the British music scene. Their albums consistently garnered critical acclaim and commercial success, solidifying their status as one of the most influential bands of their time.

Around the release of this album back in 1985, Paddy McAloon claimed that he was 'probably the best songwriter in the universe'. He wasn't far off the mark. This album is a collection of beautiful, atmospheric, catchy, moving, thoughtful songs, treated with one of the best production efforts Thomas Dolby has ever done - and that's quite something. 

Wendy Smith's simple, soaring backing vocals and Dolby's very personal keyboard sounds suit Neil Conti's crisp drums, Martin McAloon's deep bass and Paddy's complex compositions perfectly. Dolby and the band struck something very special and undefinable on this album that they haven't quite been able to recreate on their following collaborations.
