Email received from Pledge Music (cos I help fund someone’s EP a while ago – now seems to be has-beens (Shed 7! Jesus Jones!) trying to find an excuse to make a new record.)
Anyway, this one I found amusing – Wendy James. So desperate for funding the middle-age boobies are out! 😆

Saw her at Coventry Poly in the late eighties (down in the ‘Biko’ bar).
Think i paid a couple of quid. She looked better back then.. 😉

Drugs are bad, mmkay.

Probably would, just for bragging rights, without the need for drugs. 😛

Was she in the Plasmatics? If so, she always had her norks out (with a bit of black sticky tape).

Was she in the Plasmatics?

Transvision Vamp. Google would suggest that you’re thinking of Wendy O. Williams.

James, not O’Williams.
James was Transvision Vamp.

Was she in the Plasmatics

think they were yanks and yes she did 😳

WJ was in Transvision Vamp…….

Beaten to it……….

Wendy o’Williams allegedly also had a W tattoed on each buttock…

James = Pop tart
O Williams = Scary punk – died 10 years ago so unlikely to want to fund a new album.

Just ‘had’ to google Wendy O’Williams…

Blimey, she’s a shy girl.

Good old Wendy James (in the late 80s/early 90s)…

Why did I click on DezB’s link. Teenage fantasy crushed 🙁

You know you wanted to see her boobies 😀

Wendy James and Sally James

That’s the problem, I did

Had to check and 51 years old! Not bad for her age I’d say…..I will not be posting any pictures of my 48yr old self for comparison 🙂

Slightly more work-safe (but less flattering) picture…

Anyone else got “I want your love” stuck in their heads now, or just me?

Nah, I’ve got one of their other hits.. 😆

By the way, I swear this thread wasn’t meant to be about how she looks! But I dunno, put a blonde bob on the pic with Coxie.. be ok.

Nope, ‘Baby I Don’t Care’ stuck in my head and I can vaguely remember the video

I’ll have a listen to some of her more recent stuff when I get home, never know it may be good?

I’m glad you said that, I reworded my post several times and still wasn’t overly happy with it when I finally clicked post…

I first saw her Pledge about a year ago and gave some of it a try, didn’t do much for me. I bought her “Racine” album a few years back and was similarly non-plussed by it.

Bring back Pop Art!

I don’t want your books on Marilyn or Bobby D, your pictures, your records, or anything…

Wouldn’t that read Wendy I Williams?

Oh dear.

WoW

Wendy James and Sally James

And Sid James and Clive James

I liked her in Are you being Served…
