Alice Band - Nothing On But The Radio
(Now on Filelodge) All I remember about the Alice Band is that they were three young ladies with a sort of 'mature Hepburn' thing going on (not that Hepburn themselves did well enough to warrant a mature version), one of them went out with Tim from Ash, and this was their second single, the follow up to the nice but nothing special One Day at a Time. This one is quite special, though. It's a real girl's anthem, about kicking out the boy to dance around in your birthday suit to loads of ace songs, and the carefree jubilation described in the lyrics is reflected in the sound of this extremely jolly single. A little research tells me they released an album in 2002, The Love Junk Store, which is available on Amazon.
