Another very good band I somehow missed. Thanks! Interesting songs, very good lead singer and I love the rhythm section.

In your defense, Some Kind of Wonderful was one of those sleeper teen movies from the '80s. Happy to share The March Violets with you.

Some Kind of Wonderful is one of my very favourite 80s movies. I have watched it countless times and yet was still unfamiliar with March Violets (although I obviously remember the cover of “Miss Amanda Jones” from the film and “Turn to the Sky” was like an old friend I had forgotten, the second the demo started playing.) Thoroughly enjoyed this. Thank you so much!

You're very welcome. It's probably my favorite '80s teen romance, too. I should have guessed it would be high on your list!

Imagine growing up without John Hughes movies! I think (?) this was my on ramp to Flesh For Lulu. So, so many great tracks here. "Turn to the Sky" is fantastic. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!
