The Psychedelic Furs - Pretty In Pink 7'' (1981)

This was the Fur's fourth single (I think) and a single that just about all of you would of heard. The band are back together and in September/October will be touring with The Happy Mondays in the US. That should be fun for them then!


Tracks


1) Pretty In Pink
2) Mack The Knife

The Furs were incredible around the time of the first LP - great record, great live. Second album: slightly sidetracked, but still excellent. "Pretty In Pink" = top too, but what came after that... yuk.

I appreciate all the Furs albums and it's easy to slag off a lot of Punk/New Wave bands after their first couple of albums however bands have to adapt and change no not allways for the best but it's inevitable.

Sorry Jeronyme....all fixed now.

Cheers for the comments too LowDownKids,Marky and Mike. For what its worth,I like the Furs 2nd album better than the first one but I don't think the stuff afterwards is quite as good.

Man, do I ever love the opening bars to this one. Crackles and pops in all the right places, too...

Thank you, Longy!

Just a great song. Shame the remake was not so great. I love the Furs...Richard Butler had some of the best pipes of the last 30 years.

Cheers Bio and yep I agree with about the remake Infonistacrat
