Big-haired, cool and suave '80s pop icons whose videos and songs lived on long after the band had split. Their debut album The Lexicon of Love' was a huge hit in 1981and often features in UK critics' lists of favourite albums; it ranked 42nd in The Observer Music Monthly's "Top 100 British Albums" (June 2004). Now reformed and back on the road with new material as well as the classics.
