SAMANTHA FOX – Touch Me [Cherry Red Deluxe Edition 2xCD / 27 bonus tracks]

As requested, here’s the digitally remastered and expanded two CD edition of the classic 1986 debut album from British bombshell SAMANTHA FOX, ”Touch Me [Cherry Red Deluxe Edition 2xCD]”, released by Cherry Red Records division Cherry Pop.
Transitioning to pop music after three years as a Page 3 girl topless model, Fox released the single “Touch Me (I Want Your Body)” on 10 March 1986 and exploded in the charts all over the world. Immediately establishing Samantha’s signature pop-rock sound, the album was certified gold on its original release, reaching #17 in the UK and #24 in the US.

Motorhead’s Lemmy was Samantha’s mentor – she admitted being a metal / frustrated rocker – and despite her songs being pop, Samantha always has been linked to the hard rock world in one way or another.
Remastered direct from the master tapes, this edition brings together the original 10-track album with an incredible amount 27 bonus tracks across two CDs. Presented together with Samantha’s later work and on CD for the very first time are her early recordings for Lamborghini Records with her first band SFX – “Rockin’ with My Radio”, “Aim to Win” and “Holding”. Bonus tracks also include rare B-sides and many sought-after 12″ mixes, the majority of which have never before been released on CD.

The only British female artist to score three Top Ten hits on both sides of the Atlantic in the 1980s, Samantha Fox made her name as the nation’s favourite Page Three girl before launching an enviable music career.
The anthemic “Touch Me (I Want Your Body)” became a global chart-topper in 1986 and was followed by a succession of hits, including several collaborations with both the legendary Stock Aitken Waterman and US hip-hop pioneers Full Force.

Compiled with personal input from Samantha herself, the extensive booklet also features reversible cover art, many additional photos, a fully illustrated discography and recording data, full lyrics and new sleeve notes written especially for this release.
