Girls at Our Best!

Judy Evans is the only female Girl at Our Best! but her untrained trilling is the band’s most distinctive element. The male musicians play pep-charged tunes about narcissistic youth; unflagging chord changes and witty lyrics prevent portentousness. A good romp. Thomas Dolby is among the players.

The Peel Sessions EP, recorded in February 1981, contains, among other selections, a medley of three singles.[Scott Isler]
