THE B3LLE ST@RS - B3LLE-lSSlMA! SWEET M3M0RlES (2004) REM@STER3D 2CD

The Belle Stars were an all female British Pop/Rock band founded in London by former members of the 2 Tone SKA Revival band 'The Bodysnatchers'.  After a few singles that failed to chart, they found their first big hit with a cover of 'Iko Iko', followed by 2 more covers with 'The Clapping Song' & 'Mockingbird'.  In 1983 they released their only album 'Sign Of The Times' which gave them their biggest chart hit with the title track.  Unable to repeat the chart success of 'Sign Of The Times', the band split in 1984.  This compilation brings together all the tracks from 'Sign Of The Times' along with their previous single releases and the\ 12" Mixes to give a complete overview of this unique 80's band.
