quite a goldmine...
I wish it was searchable, but really can't complain
thanks

I realize it's no Laura Brannigan thread but...

there's massive Toyah coverage in Smash Hits UK circa 81/82/83/84..
we like it!!!

So long as it doesn't disregard Kim Carnes, I'll be happy.

Now if there was only a Star Hits archive.

All the best,
eighties

OK, now who's Toyah? This is all really rather informative - I now know Laura Brannigan can't lipsink worth a damn. Can anyone shed some light on what skill Toyah may have been deficient in?

from SMASH HITS UK< 1981

Q: What was your school nickname?

A: I had a lot. When I was ten it was 'Barrel' because I was very fat. Then it became 'Toilet' when I was about 14

We? Please explain.

Thanks for the link Blir, spent many hours reading them again. The music reviews were usually spot on and the guest reviewers always made it more interesting, especially the one time Captain Sensible did it! [:D]

The magazine was one of my biggest influences and without it I would never have discovered bands like Malaria!, Small Ads and The Europeans.

we being the readers of UK Smash Hits; she owned it in the early 80s, on the cover and in the pages constantly, 1980-84..
