Description
Having risen to the forefront of 80s British pop global dominance as the soulful featured vocalist on Culture Club smassive Colour By Numbers album and hits like Church of the Poison Mind and The War Song , Helen Terry s inevitable 1986 solo set has long been a much sought-after lost gem for fans, reaching ridiculous prices on eBay.

A comprehensive booklet featuring rare pictures, single sleeves, full discography and exclusive liner notes from ex-Attitude editor Adam Mattera and the elusive Miss Terry herself (now exec producer of The Brits).
