• Featuring no less than 76 remastered tracks and many rare and unreleased mixes, this collection serves to highlight the pioneering pop/house crossover sound created especially for Mel & Kim by songwriting and production powerhouse Stock Aitken Waterman and the PWL studio team. Not only was ‘Showing Out’ arguably the first ever British house record, but also the very first house track to crack the Billboard Hot 100 in the US. Likewise, ‘I’m The One Who Really Loves You’ was one of the very first tracks to be remixed by the legendary Clivillés & Cole.
• Compiled with the blessing and involvement of Kim Appleby, the Singles Box Set also boasts a 24-page booklet featuring lyrics, discography, new sleeve notes and many classic and rare images. D2C orders via the Cherry Red webstore will include an exclusive bonus set of six postcards, featuring alternative single artwork from around the world.
Mel & Kim debuted with ‘Showing Out’ in September 1986, and in March 1987, ‘Respectable’ became the first Stock Aitken Waterman composition to top the charts. Combining a streetwise pop sensibility with cutting-edge house grooves, Mel & Kim became a global sensation. But at the height of their fame, Mel was diagnosed with cancer. Tragically, her health deteriorated and she passed away in January 1990, aged just 23.
In late 1990, Kim made her solo debut with the #2 smash ‘Don’t Worry’, from a self-titled album that she had mainly co-written with her sister, and a further string of hits followed. Written in honour of Mel, ‘Don’t Worry’ was nominated for Best Contemporary Song at the annual Ivor Novello Awards and as result, Kim chaired the judging panel for this award at the Ivors for 11 years.
2018 found Kim making her long-awaited return to the stage for Let’s Rock and Rewind festivals, where she delighted fans by revisiting Mel & Kim hits in her live set for the very first time. She also teamed up with Midge Ure to co-present the popular and highly acclaimed BBC Four series “Smashing Hits! The 80s Pop Map of Britain and Ireland”. We are delighted to be working with her on this release.
