THIS IS THE EXTRA RARE GREEK ORIGINAL PRESS OF THE 1991
Divinyls S/T LP
Divinyls (stylised as diVINYLS) is the fourth studio album by Australian band Divinyls, released on 29 January 1991 (despite the copyright date stating 1990) by Virgin Records. The album was the band's most successful,[3] peaking at No.5 in Australia and No.15 in the US. The album also contained the band's biggest-selling single, "I Touch Myself", which reached No.1 in Australia, No.4 in the US and No.10 in the UK.
The album was the only album recorded by the band with the Virgin Records label after a recording contract with Chrysalis Records in the UK was terminated.[4] Virgin told manager Andrew McManus they were keen to sign the band—by then comprising just singer Chrissy Amphlett and guitaristMark McEntee—because they saw Amphlett as "the next Madonna".[4] Amphlett and McEntee moved to an apartment in Paris where they wrote "Love School", "Make Out Alright" and "Lay Your Body Down", before transferring to Los Angeles, where the remainder of the album was written, partly in collaboration with songwriters Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly.[4]
The album was recorded at Jackson Browne's Groove Masters Studio in Santa Monica throughout 1990, with backing provided by bassist Randy Jackson, keyboardist Benmont Tench of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers and drummer Charley Drayton, who later married Chrissie Amphlett..
Director Michael Bay filmed a video for "I Touch Myself" in a nunnery in Pasadena. The clip was nominated for an MTV award but in their home country was banned from television.[4]
