FLMOpis:One of the best-remembered acts of the 80s, Cockney sisters Mel & Kim Appleby instantly conquered dance floors, charts and hearts around the world with their style, personality and a string of perfect pop anthems. Their classic album "F.

L.

M." is now given a muchanticipated Deluxe Edition 2CD reissue on Cherry Pop. Produced by Stock Aitken Waterman, the album reached #3 on its original release in April 1987, going platinum in the UK and topping the charts internationally with sales in excess of three million copies. "F.

L.

M." features three UK Top Ten hits Showing Out (Get Fresh At The Weekend) , the classic #1 Respectable and the title track. Digitally re-mastered and compiled from original master tapes archived at Abbey Road and Pete Waterman s PWL Studios, this release features no less than nineteen exclusive bonus tracks across two discs, including the 1988 Top Ten hit, That s The Way It Is and its self-penned B-side, You Changed My Life . Both tracks are included alongside the "F.

L.

M." album for the first time ever. This Deluxe Edition also presents the definitive collection of Mel & Kim s best full-length 12" mixes, many previously unreleased or never before available on CD. Remixes of all the singles feature alongside unheard versions of several album tracks including System Mel & Kim s first PWL recording and intended debut single, Feel A Whole Lot Better , I m The One Who Really Loves You and the soulful More Than Words Can Say widely considered to be SAW s best-ever down-tempo production. Kim Appleby has generously contributed an exclusive commentary to this release. The extensive booklet also features a reversible cover, an illustrated discography, additional photos and brand new sleeve notes from PWL consultant Tom Parker. Mel & Kim s debut single, Showing Out , hit #3 in November 1986, and in February 1987 Respectable became the first Stock Aitken Waterman composition to top the charts. Combining a streetwise pop sensibility with transatlantic house grooves, Mel & Kim became a global sensation. But at the height of their fame, Mel was diagnosed with cancer. Facing relentless media attention with dignity and characteristic humour while she underwent treatment, the duo released a brand new single in February 1988 That s The Way It Is . Tragically, Mel s health deteriorated and she passed away in January 1990, aged just 23. In late 1990, Kim made her solo debut with the #2 hit, Don t Worry , from a self-titled album that she had mainly co-written with Mel. Further singles followed over the next four years, including G.
