On 30 May 1987 this hopeful Blow Monkeys single
featuring Curtis Mayfield reached number 52 in the UK charts. Two weeks later Margaret
Thatcher led the Conservatives to a third consecutive election victory and any
celebration by Dr. Robert, Curtis and a bunch of northern soul spinning dancers was put on hold.
So, that's Mrs Thatch gone yesterday, Curtis sadly gone, but the Blow Monkeys - you may be surprised to learn - are still around. Their new single, "Oh My" is here.
