OXO

Artist: OXO
LP: OXO
Song: "Wanna Be Your Love"
[ listen ]

At one point I felt it was vital that I hunt down and obtain all four versions of this terrific 1982 OXO album—green, red, yellow and blue—but now I simply haven't got enough space on my shelves to keep them all. I'm saving the one that's my favorite color...and that doesn't feature an annoying blue "Contains the Hit Single..." triangle sticker on the front. Not known as a Latin band, per se (all they're really remembered for is this), Ish, Orlando, Freddy and Frank dig into their Spanish-language roots on "Wanna Be Your Love" and the results are fantastic!
