''In Car Stereo'' is the final album by British pop group The Dooleys. It failed to secure a release in the UK and was only issued in Japan.〔(The Pop Fantasia - ''In Car Stereo'' album page )〕 Following the failure of their previous album and follow-up singles, the group was dropped by Epic Records. The Dooleys set up their own label,'' R 'n' R Records'', and recorded this album with a new female vocalist, Vicki Roe. The first single released was "Flavour of the Month" in September 1983, but failed to chart in the UK and forced them to shelve the album.〔(Eil.com - "Flavour of the Month" single )〕 The album did get a release in Japan, however, where the group had enjoyed two earlier No.1 singles, along with the release of the title track as a single.〔(Japanese Import No.1s - "Wanted" and "Body Language" )〕〔(The Pop Fantasia - Japanese single releases )〕 Neither charted in Japan and this effectively marked the end of The Dooleys as a recording act. The Dooleys continued touring and released a limited edition 12" single, "New Beginning", under the name ''Force 8'', but this failed to attract any attention. The song itself became a big hit for Bucks Fizz in 1986 however.〔(The Pop Fantasia - UK single releases )〕〔("New Beginning" - Chart details for Bucks Fizz version )〕 That same year, "Flavour of the Month" was belatedly released as a single in Ireland, where Vicki Roe was originally from. It gained much radio attention, but failed to chart. The Dooleys went through further line-up changes and finally disbanded in 1991.〔(Dooley fans - Line-up changes and disbanding )〕 == Track listing == Side one # "In Car Stereo" (Leeson / Vale) # "Put Me on Ice" (Lyons / Reaney) # "Wherever You're Going" (May) # "Hanging Round No More" (Leeson / Vale) # "Can't Dance" (Dooley / Bogan / Gold) # "Casualty" (Bliss / Demick) Side two # "Let Me Know" (May) # "Flavour of the Month" (Bugatti / Musker) # "Eeny Meeny Macka Rack" (Lane / Stockley / Hidemark) # "Don't Make Me Do It" (Lewis) # "Late at Night" (May) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「In Car Stereo」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
