Our Take

Sharon Signs To Cherry Red Independent Women 1979-1985 is a delightful compilation that pays homage to the unsung heroines of the British indie scene. This diverse mix of artists showcases the talent and creativity of women who paved the way for future generations.

The album kicks off with The Raincoats' punk anthem "Fairytale in the Supermarket," a raw and gritty track that sets the tone for the rest of the collection. From the haunting vocals of Marine Girls to the infectious pop melodies of Strawberry Switchblade, each song on this album offers a unique insight into the world of independent women making music in the '80s.

Standout tracks include The Slits' rebellious "Typical Girls," a feminist anthem that still resonates today, and Dolly Mixture's infectious "Dream Come True," which showcases their signature blend of sweet harmonies and catchy hooks. The compilation also features lesser-known gems like Honey Bane's punky "Girl on the Run" and The Mo-Dettes' quirky "White Mice," proving that the indie scene was full of hidden treasures waiting to be discovered.

Overall, Sharon Signs To Cherry Red Independent Women 1979-1985 is a must-listen for any music lover looking to expand their horizons and discover some hidden gems from the past. So grab your neon leg warmers and oversized blazers, and prepare to be transported back to a time when independent women ruled the airwaves.
