I believe the dee-lovely Dr Bastard has waxed a rhapsody or two about her new album.
Dr B. over to you.....

I do like it alot. It's rather classy bar the titles of the songs which are pure trash pop. The album isn't what you would expect, it's quite stripped down but after a few listens you find yourself loving Racine.
Although you may prefer Baby I Don't Care.

Is she doing any mainstream promotion for this? What's the image now? I'm assuming she's moved on from pink lipstick and a nightie.

The wonderful No Rock and Roll fun blog described Ms James new look thus: "We don't know what look she's going for... but the cataract glasses and the cardie suggests its 'Debbie Harry goes to the bingo' Judge for yourself: The Racine website: www.theracineworld.com has audio clips and lots of lovely pictures too.

She looks a lot like Pheebs from Friends on the last BW pic!
Velveteen was my first "bought with saved money" album on vinyl. I LOVED all the tracks on it so much.
Wendy had horrible red haired- legs on a Smash Hits poster. I think the same issue had posters of Bananarama, Bother Beyond and maybe Fuzzbox.

Well I'd describe the look as more "Marilyn Monroe meets 2004", from the photo shoots so far anyway! Isn't Marilyn Monroe dead? Ms James looks like she's been tipped out of a bath chair by a particularly cruel nursemaid in the bottom picture. I am *lovin'* those shoes though. Go Wendy!

Did anyone go and see Racine live when they were in the UK?
I went to a show in London and they were ok. The songs are quite weak lyrically (not many lyrics in them at all really!), but i did prefer the live versions of them. Live the songs were much more rocky with punk rock guitar, wheras on the actual album it is rather electronic and stripped down sounding.
Wendy looked good, she hasn't really aged that much really.
