An Appreciation Of " Slade " Our American Friends May Not Know Them.
page: 2share:
a reply to: alldaylong
Why would you think Americans aren't aware of Slade?
They LIVED in the US for a couple of years in the 1970s, turning their back on their own fans back home.
Then, after a lull in the late 70s (because of punk), they resumed their offensive on the States, turning out a few hits over there which were very successful, and touring extensively - and almost exclusively - in the US.
Like a lot of British acts, they were preoccupied with conquering America because it's the biggest, most lucrative market.
