Blog Facelift
Just to let everybody know, "Underground Alley" has changed its name to "Ultimate 80s Music" so I can have a little more freedom in selecting the songs, artists and genres, as long as it's from 1980-1989 (literally). This blog is to connect to my other blog, Windham Hill Memories, for the majority of the WH stuff (the 80s Windham Hill stuff anyway) will be on here from now on. This blog will now feature music of the post punk or post disco era (1980), early New Wave era ("Bette Davis Eyes"/"Thriller" era - 1981-82), official USA New Wave era ("Time After Time"/"Ghostbusters" era - 1983-84), the Miami Vice/Mid 80s ("Sussudio"/"Glory of Love" era - 1985-86) and the late 80s dance era ("Never Gonna Give You Up"/"First Time"/"She Drives Me Crazy" - 1987-1989). You will find genres of music fom pop, New Wave, electronic, instrumental, Italo Disco and more. Some stuff will be popular, some will be rare so keep that in mind. Also keep in mind that I may post other 80s-related stuff that I think would fit the blog that may or may not be music-related. January 30th at 4 p.m. is my Phil Collins birthday live playlist on Spotify. Music, ads and me selecting the tracks. Tune in if you like!

There is not much else to say about them, except that Their self-titled debut album was released in 1981, however, it didn't sell well. They planned on releasing a second album, but it was never completed and as a result, the band left Charisma Records and the band members split up. Phillip Jones teamed up with Alex McKechnie in 1985 to form the duo Two's a Crowd (renamed Up and Running later on).
Fact: Phillip Jones had been in other bands since 1977 and the band members of Afraid of Mice used to perform covers, then later wrote their own material.

The Adventures...of Failure (Harsh but True)
Artist/Band: The Adventures
Genre: New Wave, synthpop, pop rock, alternative rock, Irish folk
From: Belfast, Northern Ireland, U.K.
Years Active: 1984-1993, 2007, 2009
Label(s): Chrysalis, Elektra, Polydor
Band Members:
Terry Sharpe - Lead singer
Pat Gribben - Guitarist
Elieen Gribben -
Gerard 'Spud" Murphy
Paul Crowder
Jonathan Whitehead
Tony Ayre (Past Member)
About:
The Adventures are a Northern Irish rock group that formed in Belfast in 1984. Terry Sharpe and Pat Gribben first worked together in 1978 when they joined the punk band, The Starjets. The band experienced limited success and disbanded in the early 1980s. Sharpe and Gribben then formed The Adventures in early 1984, with Gribben's wife, Eileen, Gerard Murphy, Tony Ayre and Paul Crowder. They The band later moved to London during the summer, where they signed to Chrysalis Records and released their first single, "Another Silent Day" later that year. The single barely made it to the charts. Other singles, "Send My Heart", "Feel the Raindrops", and "Two Rivers", were also minor UK hits, but none of them became big hits.
Singles, Albums, and Charting:
Reworded from Wikipedia:
Following their debut album in 1985, Theodore and Friends that releases a year after, the group then moved to Elekra Records and scored their biggest hit "Broken Land", written by Pat Gribben. It reached number 20 in the UK Singles Chart and was also the most played song on BBC Radio 1 in 1988. The album received critical acclaim but not many copies were sold. During the year their debut album was released, they were on tour supporting Tears for Fears.
The band laid low for the next two years after that. During that time, Pat Gribben, the main songwriter composed new songs for the second album and the band left Chrysalis Records and were picked up by Elekra Records. With promotion and ton of airplay, their next single, "Broken Land" became their first significant hit, reaching Number 20 in the UK Singles Chart and stayed that way for ten weeks.
The single was quickly followed up by the album, The Sea of Love, which reached Number 30 and also remained on the chart for ten weeks. The follow-up singles, "Drowning in the Sea of Love" and "One Step From Heaven" failed to reach as highly on the chart and stayed at number 44 and number 82. Though the track didn't chart high, the album did become certified Silver by the BPI in 1989, a year after it was released.
In 1990, the band combined pop/rock with folk for their third album, Trading Secrets with the Moon, with a couple of singles. This album unfortunately failed to capitalize on their earlier works and only briefly appeared on the UK Albums Chart, charting number 64. As a result, their contract ended with the Elektra label.
The band became a quartet, and returned in 1992 and released the single "Raining All Over the World", under the Polydor label. The song only reached number 68 and was to be the groups final chart appearance. In 1993, they released their fourth album, and produced by ex-Vibrators bassist, Pat Collier, Lions and Tigers and Bears. Despite the new single, which was a cover of the Mamas & the Papas hit, "Monday Monday", the album had negative feedback and it failed to chart. In the end, the band was dropped by Polydor and they broke up.
Life after The Adventures:
Pat Gribben still writes songs and is currently working with singer Ryan Molloy.
Terry Sharpe spent years performing in a cover band called The Dead Handsomes.
The Adventures briefly regrouped in 2007 to tour in some gigs in Belfast, but they've never officially refomed, nor did they have a reunion. They regrouped again in 2009 to perform more gigs in Belfast, right before Tony Ayre died. He passed away on December 20th, 2009.

Holy Jubilee! It's Adam and the Ants
This week, I'll be covering the British rock band, Adam and the Ants, followed by Adam Ant as a soloist. Because there is so much information about this band, I will explain the basic information about them and send you links to do more research.
I became instantly prepared to make this last week but the post was delayed a due to lack of organization and time.
For more information on his solo career, click here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam_Ant
Artist/Band: Adam and the Ants
I became instantly prepared to make this last week but the post was delayed a due to lack of organization and time.
But nonetheless, here it is!
About Adam Ant
Name: Stuart Leslie Goddard
Born: November 3, 1954
About: Adam Ant is an English musician who gained popularity as the lead singer of the group Adam and the Ants and later as a solo artist. He scored 10 UK top ten hits from 1980-1983, including three number 1 hits. Ant was also popular in the United States, and once voted the sexiest man in America by the MTV viewers. He was also an actor, appearing in over two dozen films and television episodes from 1985-2003. As of 2010, Ant had returned to the music business by performing live regularly in London and beyond, recording and releasing a new album and with three full-length UK national tours, a US national tour and a short Australian tour, all now completed.
Early Life and Childhood: Adam (Stuart Goddard) was born an only child in Marylebone, London. He is on Romani descent. His maternal grandfather, Walter Albany Smith, was Romanichal. His home had two rooms in De Walden buildings, St John's Wood. In other words, he lived in a two-room house, apartment, or building in general. It was good enough to get by, no luxuries, but plenty of food. His dad, Leslie Goddard, worked as a chauffer and his mum, Betty Kathleen Smith, was a domestic cleaner, briefly working for Beatle Paul McCartney. His parents divorced when Stuart was only seven years old. His first school was Robinsfield Infants School, where he once threw a brick through one of the head-teacher's office windows. (Man he was such a bad boy.) As a result, he was put under the supervision of teacher Joanna Saloman who encouraged him to develop his artistic ability. He continued to attend Robinsfield and later got accepted into St Marylebone Grammer School (which I think is middle school or high school) where he later became an A student. Goddard attended Hornsey College of Art to study graphic design and for a time was a student of Peter Webb. He later dropped out of Hornsey to get into the music business.

About:
Adam and the Ants were a British rock band from the late 1970s through the early 1980s.
Adam Ant played bass in the pub rock group, Bazooka Joe, which became known as the band that headlined when the Sex Pistols played their first concert on November 6, 1975 at the Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design. After seeing this, Adam quit the band to form his own band, called the B-Sides.
The B-Sides practiced regularly over the following months, but since they lacked a drummer, they could never play live at a concert. Meanwhile, Adam had befriended Pamela Rooke aka Jordon, who worked with Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood's SEX boutique shop (don't ask what it means). The Ants formed in early 1977 consisting of Lester Square, Andy Warren, and Paul Flannagan.
Lester left to finish art school and later formed the Monochrome Set just days after the Ants performed their first gig on May 5, 1977 at a bedroom in Muswell Hill. Mark Ryan replaced him on guitar and played at gigs like the one at the ICA in London on May 10, 1977. In early June, Flanagan left the band and was replaced with Dave Barbarossa and the resulting members recorded "Plastic Surgery" and featured in the film Jubilee as the band of Adam's character Kid, until Ryan was replaced by Johnny Bivouac in October 1977.
The original group members of Adam and the Ants, who formed the band became notable as a cult band from the punk rock era to post-punk and New Wave era. They were also noted for their "sexualised" stage performances on tour and the use of Burundi drums. Members Dave Barbarossa, Matthew Ashman and Leigh Gorman left the band in January 1980 to form the group Bow Wow Wow. Guitarist Marco Pirroni and drummer/record producer Chris Hughes were active in February 1980 until they left in March 1982. The band, regardless of band line-up change, was successful, thanks to lead singer and songwriter Adam Ant. John Peel show, January 23, 1978, the band recorded a live version of the song "Lou" featuring their manager, Jordon on vocals. The next day, The Ants re-recorded "Deutscher Girls" and overdubbed a guitar solo onto the re-recording of "Plastic Surgery" for the Jubilee soundtrack album, released of April of that year. The two tracks mentioned were featured on the group's vinyl debut. Touring in the UK, they proved to be very unpopular with much of the British music press who disliked their fetishistic lyrics and imagery. To get back, the Ants formed a rapport with punk fanzines like "Ripped and Torn", which gave them more courage and strength to keep trying. They struggled to find a record deal because of their unpopularity, but they eventually were signed to Decca by 1978. After releasing their first single, "Young Parisians", Decca let the Ants go and they later signed a deal with Do it and CBS and had success releasing albums, mentioned below this paragraph. In early 1982, the band received a Grammy Award nomination for "Best New Artist" and by March 1982, the band felt like they lacked enthusiasm and so Adam Ant disbanded the group.
After Adam Ant disbanded his band, he went solo, taking his song writing partner Pirroni with him. Merrick also stayed briefly as a drummer/producer for the UK release of his first single "Goody Two Shoes" and demos for (what was at the time an upcoming album) Friend or Foe, before moving on to other production work while Miall and Tibb's contracts expired.
