[edit] Soul Kitchen

I could swear I heard Bow Wow Wow cover the Doors "Soul Kitchen" once. Can someone confirm this and place it within the song listing? Thanks. -SF

[edit] World Music

Over the years I've realized that (at least some) BWW tunes are lifted from popular world music; I've never been able to find a list of the progenitors. I'll start it, maybe someone knows much more:

  • See Jungle - A miriam Makeba song, heard it on Afropop 20 years ago, don't know name
  • I'll sacrifice you - A Kaetano Veloso (sp)song, forgotten name.
  • Of course, I Want Candy is a cover

Any more info would be a tasty treat to this page on a tasty band. -BO

[edit] Discog edit

Just a small edit to the albums, Last of the Mohicans was an EP in 1982.

This is correct as far as official albums go. There are quite a few compilations for Bow Wow Wow but these were the actual releases that came out at the time.

As a side note, The ones to get if you're a fan and can't get the proper albums are Girl Bites Dog (Cassette Pet tracks plus first single c30 and a couple of rare tracks), Anthology (A best of with the singles and some live tracks), and the Wild in the USA cd for the remixes and more live tracks.

[edit] Dave Barbe

Another small edit, Dave played with Adam Ant live in 1995, not for an Adam and the Ants re-union tour.
