Deacon Blue - Dignity: Best Of: 2 CD - Was £7.99 Now £4.99 w/ Free Felivery @ HMV

Scottish pop-soul outfit, Deacon Blue, named after a Steely Dan song, originally purveyed a mixture of soul music and social commentary. However their commercial peak came with the album, WHEN THE WORLD KNOWS YOUR NAME, which topped the UK album charts in 1989. Critics complained that they'd replaced their politicism with bombast--particularly the Springsteen-lite of "Wages Day"--perhaps in response the band released the FOUR BACHARACH AND DAVID SONG EP, which charted at number 2. Despite teaming up with hip dance music DJs/remixers Paul Oakenfold and Steve Osborne, 1993's WHATEVER YOU SAY, SAY NOTHING fared poorly. Allied with their continued failure to achieve commercial success in America, the band to split up in the summer of 1994.
