Dodgy - Sylvia's Bedroom (1993)

Despite the fact that 1993's 'The Dodgy Album' was filled with buoyant 60s-styled pop tunes, it nevertheless failed to sell, though The Dodgy Club was now being exported as far afield as Amsterdam and Scandinavia. It's one of those albums that has been re-evaluated over the years, and although it's reputation is still as a second cousin to their breakthrough album 'Homegrown', it does contain some fine songs from Clarke, and remains a favourite with me. This second post contains only songs released in 1993, and bearing in mind that they'd used their best dozen or so for the album, it shows just how prolific they were even at this early stage in their career.
