Culture Club Artist Snapshot:

Led by the flamboyant, gender-bending Boy George, the U.K.'s Culture Club mixed poppy new wave with soul and reggae. In the early 1980s they produced several hit singles that made them one of the decade's biggest success stories on both sides of the Atlantic. The band reformed at the end of the '90s after George conquered his much-publicized drug problem.

Review

Rolling Stone (11/89) - #96 in Rolling Stone's "100 best albums of the 80s" survey.

Title Note

Culture Club: Boy George (vocals); Roy Hay (guitar, keyboards); Mikey Craig (bass); Jon Moss (drums, percussion).

Additional personnel: Helen Terry (vocals); Pat Seymour (flute); Steve Grainger (saxophone); Terry Bailey (trumpet); Julian Lindsay (acoustic piano); Phil Pickett (keyboards); Graham Bond (percussion); Jermaine Stewart (background vocals).

All tracks have been digitally remastered.

Despite naysayers who assumed Culture Club were a nine-day wonder, their second album, 1983's COLOUR BY NUMBERS, not only outsold their debut in both Britain and the US, it's a far better album. KISSING TO BE CLEVER was a canny blend of pop and soul, but its occasional cryptic archness kept it at something of an emotional distance. From the gospelly piano ballad opener "That's the Way"--which like several tracks here features sterling backing vocals from Helen Terry--to the moving and dramatic "Victims," that's not a problem here. Even the enormous hits "Karma Chameleon" and "Church of the Poison Mind"--possibly Culture Club's best-ever single--have a soulful ease and swing missing from the debut, although they perhaps lack the emotional heft of the abovementioned songs.

As with KISSING TO BE CLEVER, American fans should know that this CD features the original British mix and track sequence.
