Any fans of the group The Sundays?
I just discovered them. I love this group. They remind me of 10,000 Maniacs fronted by Rickie Lee Jones.

I've loved them since I was in college oh so many years ago (well, like 18 yrs ago anyway). I always thought they sounded like the female version of the Smiths.

5. Yeah, a friend of mine introduced them to me in the late 80s.
But good music ages well. Their first album is fantastic. Well, all three are fantastic actually.

6. That's what they always reminded me of, too
Especially "Here's Where the Story Ends", their first single in the US (Summer of 1990 to be exact-- I remember it well). Last I heard of them Harriet Wheeler and the guitarist had quit music and were raising a family.

7. For me it was the song that goes "Think about the time I kicked a
boy til he cried." Morrisey could've easily recorded the same song. But yeah, Here's Where the Story Ends is another great one.

3. I saw their first US tour back in the 80s...86 I think?
Her voice is amazing. I have 3 of their CDs...I think that's all they have.

4. The Sundays are great!
I have three albums and I'm pretty sure that's all they did. I wrote many a term paper listening to the Sundays.. them and Miles Davis. Great chill music for the evening too.

12. I was going to mention you in my post...
...but...eh, I dunno why I didn't. We have spoken previously of your love for The Sundays. I totally made my friend sell me his extra ticket back then because I just knew...;) It's really nice to see you, too. :hug:

Right now "A Certain Someone" is on. :)
