Wendy And Lisa - Eroica (Special Edition)

Having lent their esoteric funk-folk stylings to Prince & The Revolution during the late legend�s purple reign of the early-80s, Wendy Melvoin and Lisa Coleman left the band to pursue their own maverick musical path in 1986. Fan-favourite Eroica, their third and final album for Virgin Records, saw the duo hit a new creative peak � drawing on influences ranging from Sly Stone to Joni Mitchell to create a vibrant psychedelic-funk-folk sound that was uniquely their own. ?Included on this Special Edition double-CD of 22 digitally-remastered tracks are: ?The original 1990 album including the singles �Strung Out�, �Rainbow Lake� and �Don�t Try To Tell Me�, written and produced by Wendy & Lisa.
