Lighthouse Family – Ocean Drive (Ltd Blue Vinyl LP)
$65.00
National Album Day Exclusive 180gm Blue Vinyl. Ocean Drive the multi-platinum selling debut album from the much-loved Lighthouse Family is released for the first time ever on vinyl – Originally released on Wildcard/Polydor Records in September 1995, the album reached No 3 in the UK charts, and spawned four Top 20 singles. Lighthouse Family formed in Newcastle when keyboardist Paul Tucker and singer Tunde Baiyewu were students in the city. Taking their name from lighthouses in Whitley Bay and Tynemouth, the pair began to craft their gossamer pop- soul.
Debut single “Lifted”, received airplay on BBC Radio One as well as a number of BBC Local Radio stations, and The Chart Show aired its music video. Still, this did not translate to considerable single or album sales within 1995; it was not until “Lifted” was re-released in 1996 that it reached the top five on the UK Singles Chart, and Ocean Drive rebounded and was certified six-times platinum by the end of 1997, spending 154 weeks on the UK Albums Chart in the process.
The album also produced the UK top 20 hits “Ocean Drive”, “Goodbye Heartbreak” and “Loving Every Minute”.
Released in the age of CD, Ocean Drive is now making its debut on LP for National Album Day and is pressed onto high quality 180g blue vinyl.
