Prince Just as Vanessa Williams trilled back in the early 90s, I went and saved one of the best for last. 2016 has been a c-bomb of a year for losing a lot of great artists and none more fabulous than the great Purple One – Prince! Like […]
Roxette There must be something in the water in Sweden. First ABBA bewitched the world in the 70/80s with their fabulousness and then Roxette* did it again in the late 80s and 90s with their catchy AF pop hooks. Not only are these Swedes genetically gorgeous but they’re musically gifted as hell […]
Color Me Badd In the early 90s there were two things I loved equally and passionately; Beverly Hills 90210 and Color Me Badd. The former because, duh it was the best show ever, and the latter because they were colourful (hence the name), their songs were catchy and […]
Monique Brumby Back in the late 90s when I thought I was a little bit Indie (I really wasn’t) and a whole lotta cool (*ahem* wrong again) I absolutely, without a doubt was obsessed with Monique Brumby. I can’t remember whether it was Tez who introduced me to her […]
The 90s were a real hot-potch time in music. For me, this was the decade where so many different genres came to the fore and I think I tried them all on for size. There was the demise of hair bands (so sad!) and the rise of grunge, […]
You can hear the Gregorian chants now, can’t you? If you’re an avid reader of A Red Lip And A Nude Shoe then you know that I was an odd kid (and not much has changed in adulthood haha!) so it should come as no surprise that I […]
So. Much. CRINGE! I never promised you that all the entries in Sunday Sessions would be pretty or even talented and this week’s band is definitely not that. Welcome to 1993, dollface, where the fashion was questionable and music took a little dive for the worse AND I LOVED IT! I embraced whole-heartedly the […]
Jeff Buckley – Grace OK, truth be told I tried writing this post the other day and I had to stop because it just upset me so much. *SIGH* Oh Jeff Buckley, how I love you so and am so desperately sad you were cut short in the prime […]
One of the many line-ups throughout the years The Lemonheads have been around for the last 30 years and the only true constant in the band is my mate, Evan Dando *ahem, photographic evidence below! ahem* Over the years there has been more than 20 different members, including […]
Can you feel the 90s angst?! When you’re an angst filled teenager is there anything better than listening to some loud guitars and growling vocals? You may ask how I can go from fun and fabulous boy bands one week to dirty, rocking grunge the next? Well, being a […]
