Pop Art

Transvision Vamp were a genuine International Pop Supernova of the late eighties. Fronted by the irrepressible Wendy James – Pop’s very own Halo Jones – whose bad-girl charms were impossible to ignore, and informed by the musical vision of Nick Christian Sayer, their sound and look was a kaleidoscopic whirl of chunky guitar riffs, incandescent pop thrills, razor sharp choral hooks, and vivid comic-book imagery. They crashed the charts like a rock and roll wrecking ball, bagging Gold and Platinum-selling albums in a brief but spectacular reign. Charting in April 1988 with the punk-pop sound of their second single, a cover of Holly and The Italians’ Tell That Girl To Shut Up, the band followed this up with the Top 5 single I Want Your Love and number 4 debut album Pop Art, certified Gold. First single Revolution Baby is also included.
