Bucks Fizz On Track

In January 1981,the four members of Bucks Fizz – Mike Nolan, Cheryl Baker, Jay Aston, and BobbyG – met each other for the first time. Three months later, they were catapultedto international success when ‘Making Your Mind Up’, with its now famous routine,won the Eurovision Song Contest and raced to the top of the charts in ninecountries, selling four million copies worldwide. Bucks Fizz went on to becomeone of the most popular groups of the 1980s, with 20 UK hit singles, includingtwo further number ones with ‘The Land Of Make Believe’ and ‘My Camera NeverLies’, and the Ivor Novello-nominated ‘Now Those Days Are Gone’. The groupsurvived a near-fatal coach crash and a lineup change to return triumphantly tothe UK top ten with ‘New Beginning’ in 1986.    Oftenderided by critics, Bucks Fizz produced a wealth of tremendous pop records andthis book is a celebration of the group and their music. It examines everytrack on every studio album as well as B-sides, bonus tracks, compilations,solo and related material to provide an insight into a much-loved butcritically underrated group
