Fine Young Cannibals, The Raw & The Cooked, 1988 on IRS Records / MCA
This was the second Fine Young Cannibals album following their self-titled debut. Roland Gift on vocals with the rhythm section of Andy Cox and David Steele (formerly of The Beat aka The English Beat).
Many of the songs on the LP had already appeared on film soundtracks including three from the Barry Levinson film Tin Men. Most well known would be “She Drives Me Crazy” which was a number 1 hit in the US.
My copy—via A1 Records in NYC—is a Columbia House Record Club pressing from Carrollton GA. (Note the CRC in the bottom right corner of the back sleeve).

Well Belinda Carlisle was as awesome as expected last night. She might not have quite the reach for the high notes that she used to, but her voice still has that gorgeous vibrato and it's a pleasure to hear her singing.
Dancing across the stage barefoot and in a flowy black dress she obviously enjoyed belting out all her solo hits, plus Our Lips Are Sealed from the Go-Gos days (a song she dedicated to its writer, the late great Terry Hall). It didn't take long before the audience (mostly people of, ahem, a certain age) were up on our feet singing and dancing along.
And as a special bonus the unbilled support act was Roland Gift, whose voice is similarly still there and gave us 25 minutes of glorious FYC hits.
10/10 would concert again.

Fine Young Cannibals / Fine Young Cannibals (1985); Ein erstaunlich ausgereiftes Debüt: schlank produzierter Pop mit Soul- und New-Wave-Einflüssen, getragen von Roland Gifts markanter Falsettstimme. Songs wie „Johnny Come Home“ und „Suspicious Minds“ mischen sozialkritische Untertöne mit tanzbaren Grooves. Stilistisch irgendwo zwischen melancholischem Northern Soul und 80s-Coolness – elegant, eigen, eingängig. #FineYoungCannibals #RolandGift #SophistiPop #PopRock #SynthPop #Pop #Soul

The word is Money#FinleyQuaye “Sunday Shining” from "Maverick A Strike," 1997
Lyric:
Some say - yeah
Money in my
(One on one)
Money in my pocket
But I just can't get your loveFinley Quaye’s debut album “Maverick A Strike” with its first single “Sunday Shining” met with pop success in his native UK, but his music seemingly will never have the breadth or influence of his more prolific nephew #Tricky. Nevertheless this is some of the most engaging, delightful music I know. Catchy? Absolutely. Lightweight? Nah/Who cares.
I’ve never thought deeply about the lyrics here; this track is the sound of a sunny summer day, the sound of joy. The album has generous helpings of #reggae flavor, but this is a #rock song, driven by a #guitar countermelody churning below vocals that call to mind #RolandGift of #FineYoungCannibals with some much-needed character from a night of cigarettes and whiskey.
Go ahead, TRY not to like this.

Money in my pocket
But I just can't get your loveFinley Quaye’s debut album “Maverick A Strike” with its first single “Sunday Shining” met with pop success in his native UK, but his music seemingly will never have the breadth or influence of his more prolific nephew #Tricky. Nevertheless this is some of the most engaging, delightful music I know. Catchy? Absolutely. Lightweight? Nah/Who cares.
I’ve never thought deeply about the lyrics here; this track is the sound of a sunny summer day, the sound of joy. The album has generous helpings of #reggae flavor, but this is a #rock song, driven by a #guitar countermelody churning below vocals that call to mind #RolandGift of #FineYoungCannibals with some much-needed character from a night of cigarettes and whiskey.
Go ahead, TRY not to like this.
