Having
evolved out of new wave band The Exits, THE DIRECT HITS formed around 1981 and
signed to Whaam! Records, the label run by TV Personalities frontman Dan
Treacy. First single Modesty Blaise was a perfect blend of power pop, Mod rock
and 60s stylings. Today, it sounds like Britpop over a decade too early!
Compiled
and designed by DIRECT HITS frontman Colin Swan, Here, There Or Anywhere is a
comprehensive collection of the bands output " and their first CD reissue
for many years. Alongside Modesty Blaise are tracks from their cult debut album
Blow Up, issued on Whaam! in 1984, 1985 single She Really Didn’t Care, rare
live tracks and a few selections from their second album House Of Secrets.
