Number 1

Remember Transvision Vamp - The pop-punk band fronted by Wendy James that burst onto the music scene in 1988 with the boisterously catchy I Want Your Love?
And - of course - their first album, Pop Art, included the song Hanging out with Halo Jones which made hem an instant favourote of mine, for some reason.
Well, now Wendy James is back.
Following the bands split in 1991, James moved from London to New York, learned to play every instrument she could lay her hands on and started recording as Racine - which is the name of a drag strip in Chicago and also means “roots” in French.
And Racine’s first album, Number 1 is now available.
