40 Years Ago - 1984 Bangles released their debut album All Over the Place.
Although the album was not a major commercial success – peaking at #80 on the Billboard 200 albums chart – and did not produce a hit, it sold respectably, mostly through steady airplay on college stations. It also gave them the chance to perform as an opening act for Cyndi Lauper and Huey Lewis and the News, and brought the group to the attention of Prince, who would write "Manic Monday", their first hit.
Two singles were worked, the great "Hero Takes a Fall" and
"Going Down to Liverpool"
This is a fun listen of things you might not know.
