Description

Originally released in 1997 during the heyday of the alternative UK Electro scene, Finley Quayes debut Maverick A Strike struck a chord with many. Fusing Dub, Reggae, Pop, Triphop and Indie, his amalgam of styles resonated throughout the music world like no other record at the time. Trickys Maxinquaye
[MOVLP507] came close. Perhaps its no coincidence that these two artists are family they sure put their stamp on the sound of the Nineties!

Original vinyl issues were in short supply at the time of release, making this Music On Vinyl issue a very welcome one for the fans.

Finley Quaye won the Best British Male Solo Artist at the Brit Awards in 1998 and Maverick a Strike went double-platinum. Sunday Shining an adaptation of Bob Marleys Sun Is Shining led the album with its noisy guitar and grooves like strange, dubby garage rock.
