a serious misfire
I have fond memories of driving around L. I LOVE Bananarama - have been a fan for almost 25 years (is that possible???). A. in a white Ford Mustang convertible while on vacation, a young 20-something in the early 80's, listening to "Cruel Summer" and thinking it ("IT" being me being 20-something!!) would never end. Wow, the memories. These ladies have recorded some seriously EXCELLENT car music - WOW, True Confessions, Pop Life. . . . . . That's why this disc is such a major let-down. Whatever they had, it's simply not there anymore. They're just going through the motions. A major bummer. There's something to be said for retiring while one is at one's peak. . . . . . Overall, a very sad, depressing album. .


One Of The Very Best Of Bana's


Half the album tracks keep your dancing and smiling. This is indeed one of the GREATEST Bananarama album ever !

I have been a Bana's fan for more than 23 years (checkout the latest DRAMA album too), and ULTRA VELVET is one of my favourite. Check out the remixes singles "Every Shade Of Blue" and "Take Me To Your Heart", they are FANTASTIC!!

Way to go girls, and looking forward for more great music!

life after Siobhan (Shuv-on).....
k. This is it! the first project recorded by Sarah Dallin & Keren Woodword (a. a Bananarama). Since losing bandmates Jaqui O'Sullivan and , original bandmate Siobhan Fahey. The previous 3 released LP's are awsome too, if you can gain access to those as well, they are "WOW!",-Siobhan's last recording w/ the band, "Pop Life"-only Lp recording w/ Jaqui O'Sullivan. And last,"Please Yourself"-(import release only*)and first release as a duo! And then of course there's "Ultra Violet", the first released LP in the states as a duo, Includes an occassional ballad such as: "Maybe The Next Time". But overall a bass-thumping, club-sounding, dance-vibe feel LP. Stand-out tracks include: "Don't Stop Me Now", "Every Shade Of Blue", "System", "Give In To Me", & "I Found Love". Of course there's more but I have to leave you some surprises! You won't regret this purchase or this album, ecspecially those who love Bananarama, club-feel music, those who love to dance & party! And of course ALL will appriciate Bananarama's new sound on this one. . . . there's is life after Siobhan!.


This one should be called WOW!
This is a very interesting recording and quite satisfying all around! Go Girls!. As the occasional Bananarama fan (I bought their first two records on vinyl) I have always been slightly amused by the output of these girls and the devotion of some maniacal Bananarama fans - so I picked this up cheap and it is GREAT! GREAT! WOW! "Every Shade Of Blue" is one of their top 3 best singles - a true gem.


one of their best!
There are a few slower-tempo songs, but mostly, it's filled with fast, club-sounding music. This album may be 9 years old, but it still sounds great!! Everyone who has been over to my apartment and heard it has commented on it positively, without exception-now that's makes for a great review. (I almost always use this disc for my workouts, as it's perfect for aerobics, etc. ) The two girls vocals are delicious. [. . . ].
