Absolutely brilliant band. I own both albums & the subsequent compilation. Wonder if it really was the choice of name (many people presumed it was a male singer) that inadvertently let them down. Would like to think not, but suspect it didn't help. Only they know....
Ok Danny Wilson fans heres a quick question..was there another video made for "Davy"? I seem to remember a video with a bed floating down a canal/river...anybody?
Gorgeous songwriting, gorgeous arranging, magical production. What else can you need? Gary Clark is every bit as talented as Paddy, yet it's the Sprouts that everyone remembers from this period. I love "Meet Danny Wilson" - an album that really hasn't dated.
One of the most underrated bands of the eighties. I don't think that they ever wrote a bad song., though with that voice you could sing the phone book and still attract an audience. Brilliant!

A gem of a band. Meet Danny Wilson is a classic album. The phenomenal thing is how so much talent can be so little appreciated.
