Product Description

Ocean Drive the multiplatinum selling debut album from the muchlovedLighthouse Family is released for the frst time ever on vinyl Originallyreleased on WildcardPolydor Records in September 1995, the album reachedNo 3 in the UK charts, and spawned four Top 20 singlesThis version is pressed onto highquality 180g black vinyl.Lighthouse Family formed in Newcastle when keyboardist Paul Tucker and singerTunde Baiyewu were students in the city. Taking their name from lighthouses inWhitley Bay and Tynemouth, the pair began to craft their gossamer popsoul songs.Signed to Polydor in 1993, the group worked with the cream of session players tomake their debut album.Ocean Drive epitomised the slow burn on its initial release, it faired modestly well,reflected by the No 61 and No 24 placings of its first singles. However, when Liftedwas reissued as a single in February 1996, the album went stratospheric, hitting theTop 3, and getting further lifts every time a further single the title track, GoodbyeHeartbreak and Loving Every Minute was taken from it resulting in it being in thecharts for a staggering 154 weeks.Ocean Drive acted as a sweet, soulful antidote to the Britpop and boy and girl bandsof the day. Hearing it again makes a listener realise quite how well known the wholealbum is it was the perfect soundtrack for the burgeoning bar culture of the mid 90s.
