I'm not sure I totally understand the question, but Katrina and the Waves had Kimberly Rew from the Soft Boys as guitarist and songwriter, so that's a notch in their favour I'd say.

Mr. Rew's solo album from 2002 is really wonderful, very much worth seeking out if you have any kind of liking for British invasion-style pop:



Pardon me for going off on a tangent.

Do it, do it
Do it, do it
Do it, do it
Do it, do it

Looking through the morning dew
At smokey mountains, nothing new
Lead me to the mountain top
And we'll work until it's time to stop, oh, baby

You're mine, you're mine, you're
Walking on sunshine
I, I got to tell you that you doing fine
Walking on sunshine

I've got to tell you that you're doing fine
Walking on sunshine

(That's right, get there
Everybody to the sun
That's right, get there
Everybody to the sun)

Indeed, that's a good one. His live album 'Gotta Let This Hen Out' has a great version of that track.

I just sold all my Hitchcock and Soft Boys, along with about 5000 other albums in a desperate and long-required move to create a workable living space.

Well, the CDs are all saved as MP3s on DVD-Rs.

But the vinyl's almost all gone, and I didn't attempt to record any of it. this is the second round I've done, actually. I unloaded about 1500 vinyls to a collector right after Christmas.

A sad, painful step, and one I hope I won't regret too badly.

I remember it all too well. That's definitely a painful cautionary tale.
