Gail is super cool

I saw them in Germany around 1995 on the same bill as Oasis, The Cranberries and REM...these were my favourites...Oasis were shite
-
such a great band, so underrated. Star is one of the best albums of all time
-
To be fair "Star" sold well in excess of a million so it isn't true to say they didn't have a lot of success. The 2nd album wasn't a patch on the 1st though which probably didn't them any favours commerically.
Btw that "No Nirvana" programme featured a truly amazing collection of talent from that era. Thanks for posting this.

Happy days, their first album was ace!

absolutely love Belly. one of the best albums ever. strange that commercial success was not more.

@PappyHab -Maybe they were caught up in this whole “It’s uncool to promote yourself if you are a real artists” type atmosphere which was still prevalent back then.
I love Belly. I think they could have survived little bit longer if they promoted little harder. Realistically speaking, I don’t think they would have survived commercially beyond early 2000 even if they did that though.

Oh Gail you mad Munchkin!
Back then I really believed Belly were going to be Rock Monsters, was I ever Naive. Letterman, cover of Rolling Stone. Dont know what happened along the way, there are stranger stories I guess. You had it going on Tanya, hope you still do. Always rooting for the Underdog.
