Eddie and Sunshine - "Comfortable Strangers" lp

Postby bpdp3 » Sun Jun 15, 2008 12:38 am

Came across this title in a used record shop yesterday - - anyone familiar with it? The cover looks familiar to me, I was having a 'brink of memory' moment as I looked at it. 1983 release date, I think they were English.

Sort of well-produced synth pop. Male and female member, the guy looks like he really wanted to be in Kraftwerk. Wasn't so great I HAD to have it, but it WAS decent, representative of the era.

They were asking $15 for it, which is kind of high compared to usual asking prices....I'm wondering if this is some kind of lost gem I'm not too familiar with.

Help, anyone???

They were offering it on lastvestige.com for $25, as "Perfect Strangers" though.

Eddie and Sunshine were the next step of the-as it's said-first gothic rock band of U.K,The Gloria Mundi.They were a basic influence for Bauhaus and famous for their arty self destructive shows.As Eddie and Sunshine created a nice hybrid of synth pop and German Cabaret imagery.
