Number 114: Space Monkey - Only The Night
Space Monkey was formed by Paul Goodchild in 1983. The band's one and only album, On The Beam, was released two years later. After a lackluster chart performance and mediocre sales, Space Monkey disbanded. "Only The Night" was the first single released from the LP, and I have it at #114 on my list. Recently a crowdfunded drive has been set up to have On The Beam released on CD for the first time. Needless to say, I have contributed to this effort!
Someone took a space rock guitarist and the Roxy Music horns section, and invited them to an orgy in the Hot Tub Time Machine with the band James and set the controls to 1983 !

ReplyDeleteWho wouldn't set the controls to 1983? That's a no-brainer.
