Fabulous Poodles – Think Pink

Fabulous Poodles – Think Pink

Fabulous Poodles – Think Pink is a quirky and energetic slice of late-1970s British rock, blending new wave, pub rock, power pop and theatrical humour into a distinctly eccentric sound. Known for their sharp songwriting, playful lyrics and offbeat approach, the Fabulous Poodles created music that was catchy and accessible while retaining the irreverent spirit of the emerging new wave scene.

The album opens with the punchy "Man With Money", followed by the characterful "Bionic Man" and "Any Port In The Storm." "(Hollywood) Dragnet" adds a tongue-in-cheek cinematic feel, while "Bike Blood" rounds out the first side with the band's characteristic combination of rock'n'roll energy and surreal humour.

Side two continues the eccentric journey with "Cossack Cowboy," "Anna Rexia" and "You Woudn't Listen." Tracks such as "Suicide Bridge," "Pink City Twist" and "Vampire Rock" further demonstrate the band's ability to mix catchy melodies with bizarre characters, dark comedy and an unmistakably British sense of humour.

The Fabulous Poodles emerged from the UK pub-rock and new wave circuit, sharing the era's appetite for energetic live performance and concise, melodic songwriting while standing apart through their theatrical presentation and eccentric material. Think Pink is a particularly entertaining example of the more playful and unconventional side of late-70s British rock.

For fans of new wave, power pop, pub rock, quirky British rock and the more eccentric side of the late-1970s music scene, Think Pink is a fun and distinctive addition to any vinyl collection.
