O'Chi

Digitally remastered and expanded two CD edition of this 1986 album from the British Dance artist. O'chi features the classic 1985 single, 'Whenever You Need Somebody', a US Billboard dance chart #1 for O'chi and a #3 hit in the UK when covered by Rick Astley two years later. O'chi marked producers Stock, Aitken & Waterman's first foray into the Garage-House/pop crossover sound of subsequent productions for Mel & Kim and others. This Deluxe Edition brings together the original album with no less than nineteen bonus tracks across two CDs, most of them previously available only on vinyl or entirely unreleased. The extensive booklet also features additional photos, an illustrated discography, full lyrics and new sleeve notes from PWL expert Tom Parker together with O'chi's exclusive personal commentary and contributions. Cherry Pop. 2011.
