Devil Woman retro836
Already featured in our acclaimed Dream Babes 60'sBrit Girl series, on Beat Chic as Christine Holmes, we catch up with Christine again as she dons the glitter to become Kristine Sparkle, Glam contender in early 70'sUK popdom. Already a household familiar by this point as the co presenter on TVs Crackerjack shows Kristine released a steady stream of singles via Polydor and Decca from the late 60'sonwards. In 1974 came the LP Image, which forms the basis for this RPM Retrodisc release. A fantastic time piece that includes a foot stomping hand clapping version of the Beatles Eight Days A Week, a true Junkshop Glam classic. Also here is a track with BA Robertson, Five Sisters, and more great JSG treatments of Baby I Love You, In His Kiss, Gonna Get Along Without You Know, Loving You Is Driving Me Crazy. All somewhere between the sweetness of Lynsey de Paul and rocking Suzi Quatro. Pussycat Tiger and Sweet Talking Dan were further standouts from her second album called I m A Song in 1976, and are included as bonuses here.
