Remarkable albums from the past
Artist: PAULINE MURRAY
Best known as the frontwoman of British post-punk
band Penetration (1976–1980,2001–present)
Album: PAULINE MURRAY AND THE INVISIBLE GIRLS
Murray‘s splendid solo debut.
Released: October 1980
ALL MUSIC wrote: “When original 1977 Manchester punk band Penetration split up
in 1979, singer Pauline Murray immediately went solo, taking bassist/boyfriend Robert
Blamire with her and putting together a “dream team” backing group hard to beat. The
Invisible Girls include the LP’s legendary producer, Martin Hannett (Joy Division/New Order). This was one of the most inspired and unique solo LPs the punk generation produced.”
Score: 4/5 – Full review here.
Single: Dream Sequence
