PREFAB SPROUT - THE BEST OF PREFAB SPROUT

ORYGINALNE WYDANIE SYGNOWANE BY SONY RECORDS  1992 R.

Prefab Sprout are an English pop group, formed in the late 70’s and still releasing music today, more or less - some thirty years later. The core members are brothers Paddy and Martin McAloon, with Paddy being the frontman and songwriter, and Martin playing bass (and giving Paddy the occasional shove in the right direction.)

Other members in the ‘classic’ Sprout lineup include Wendy Smith, as a backing vocalist, Neil Conti as drummer, and Thomas Dolby as producer (occasionally known as ‘the fifth sprout. ’) This lineup was responsible for the Sprouts’ main period of success in the mid-1980’s, the most notorious moment being their #7 hit single ‘The King Of Rock ‘N’ Roll,’ with accompanying ‘dancing hot dogs’ video.

Since then, however, the Sprouts have become more known for creating ‘perfect pop’ albums, and are frequently acclaimed by critics and fellow musicians alike. Words like ‘underrated’ are often used to describe the band, who despite their mainstream success enjoy something of a cult status.
