Import from Greece. Vinyl plays nicely (play-graded). Cover looks great; a few creases near edges; light-scuffing, slight discoloration with darker discoloration spots, and surface impressions (front/back); tiny surface abrasions on front. Inner-sleeve is plastic. Spine is easy-to-read with mild-wear. Shelf-wear along top/bottom-edge and corners. Opening is crisp with signs of light use and divots. (Not a cut-out.)
Pop life, by Bananarama, is the only album released which features Jacquie O'Sullivan, who replaced Siobhan Fahey in Bananarama upon her departure in 1988. This album marks the end of the group's association with the Stock Aitken Waterman production team (they produced only two songs) as most of Pop Life was produced by Youth (real name Martin Glover). English singer Zoe provided backing vocals on Long Train Running. This would be the last album by Bananarama as a trio. After the group's first world tour in 1989, they started recording their fifth album with producers Stock, Aitken and Waterman, but they were dissatisfied with the results of those sessions, thinking the majority of those songs of sub-par quality, although Ain't No Cure and Heartless were eventually included on the album. They started looking for other producers, first working with David Z with whom they recorded Some Boys, but they felt it was not the direction they wanted to follow and the song remained unreleased until 2013. They then worked with Steve Jolley who, along with Tony Swain, had produced the group's first three records. A song co-written by him, Is Your Love Strong Enough ended up on the album, while another remains unreleased. The group settled with Youth, who had been Sara Dallin's boyfriend years before and whom the group knew well, to produce the majority of the album. Upon its release, Pop Life received positive reviews from critics. Commercially, the album reached No. 42 in the United Kingdom, No. 37 in Sweden, and No. 146 in Australia. Four mid-charting singles were issued from the album, and following the release of Tripping on Your Love, O'Sullivan left the group, leaving members Sara Dallin and Keren Woodward to continue as a duo. The track "Ain't No Cure" was covered by Stock Aitken Waterman produced girl group Delage in 1991, although it was not released until 1997.
