Number 129: Classix Nouveaux - Never Never Comes

Jack Airport and Sal Solo formed Classix Nouveaux in 1979, and over the next six years the band released three albums full of intricate and very interesting synthpop. Chart success eluded them for the most part (their biggest hit, "Is It A Dream" did hit #11 in the UK), but chart hits aren't everything, right? "Never Never Comes" didn't chart at all upon its early 1983 release, but it's a great song nonetheless. With it, Classix Nouveaux takes the #129 spot on my Top 200 in their only appearance.

  1. What Roxy Music would sound like if Brian Ferry ate too much harissa on his kebab while recording a James Bond movie theme in Morocco
