The Blow Monkeys — She Was Only A Grocer’s Daughter

Third studio album by the British pop band. The title of the album refers to Margret Thatcher, who was PM at the time, & many of the tracks are a commentary on her government. Single “It Doesn’t Have To Be This Way” was the most successful, reaching number 5 on the charts. B-side opening track “The Day After You” is a duet with Curtiss Mayfield, banned from the radio by the BBC as it was released during a General Election (Thatcher’s party won) and was deemed too political. The album hit 20 on the UK album chart, 134 on the Billboard 200, & 65 on the Canadian album chart.
