Thompson Twins were a British music
group that formed in April 1977 and
disbanded in May 1993. Initially a new wave group, they switched to a more mainstream pop sound and achieved
considerable popularity in the mid-1980s, scoring a string of hits in the United
Kingdom , the United
States , and around the globe.
The band was named after the two bumbling detectives Thomson and Thomson in Hergé's comic
strip THE ADVENTURES OF TINTIN. At
various stages, the band had up to seven members though their best known
incarnation was as a trio between 1982–86. Tom Bailey has one of the great pop voices, up there with Boy George, Jimmy Sommerville, George Michael, Stevie Winwood and the late Jack Bruce, or the very singular voices of Holly Johnson and Neil Tennant.
Actually, "Doctor, Doctor" could be my theme song this week: I had an endoscopy on Wednesday, saw my GP (local doctor) this morning, and am having a CT Scan on Monday - all to complete my cancer treatment, which finished in January ..... and which seems to have been successful. I will know the results a week later, when see my consultant on the 11th. Fingers crossed ...
