Hue and Cry - Seduced and Abandoned - 1987 - Ep. 21

For our final episode of Season 1, we are back in 1987 to visit the songwriting duo 'Hue and Cry' and their debut album 'Seduced and Abandoned'. Brothers Patrick and Greg Kane were raised in the Scottish town of Coatbridge and were just 22 and 20 years of age respectively when the LP was released on the 1st of November 1987. We take a deep dive in to their journey to unlikely top 10 hitmakers, review the album in detail with a track by track analysis, and find out what's happened to the brothers' post late 80's fame.

We set the scene before discussing all things Hue and Cry by visiting the month of November in 1987 which is a scary 35 years ago years ago as this episode is released in 2022! Chatting about what was happening in our own lives, we also review the top ten album and single charts in the UK, populated by the likes of Billy Idol, George Harrison, Rick Astley, Bronski Beat, U2 and The Bee Gees. The top 10 UK box office movies included some great films starring the likes of Sean Connery, Jack Nicholson, Bette Midler, Eddie Murphy, Susan Sarandon, and Cher.

We conclude the episode and the season by reviewing Roling Stones Magazine's top 10 songs of all time which not surprisingly features The Beatles; but which position did their sole entry in to the top 10 finish and which song was it? Tune in to find out!
