The Fixx

[SammyJames]

This Wikipedia article claims that The Fixx are "virtually unknown" in their country of origin.

I can't travel to the U.K. right now to do some on-street polling, so I thought that I'd come here to Roland Clan. The question is as follows: Is there anyone in England, who reads this forum, who does NOT know who The Fixx are?

Just wondering. And if you do know who they are (and you live in London or in the surrounding areas) tell us your thoughts on the band and their music. I've been a fan for 25 years.

Take care.

Hi Sammy,

Honestly, I've never heard of 'em, but I am from the North, so what do I know.

I'll check 'em out on a positive recommendation, though.

Cheers

I'm from the south and can say that I have never heard of them either.

One thing leads to another. Oh, but I aint from England.

Andy and Shambler: I'm a little bit surprised. Maybe the content on Wikipedia IS worth the pixels used to create it!



The Fixx are very, very good. I would go here to see some of their videos:

That is my DailyMotion page. Maybe, someday -- saved by zero -- I'll be more together... and I'll get some of my own vids up there. But for now, I have these (mostly) 80s artists vids that are my favorites. I didn't upload them myself -- I let others do that. But I enjoy these songs so much that I have to go to my page on occasion just to have a look and a listen. You can also see some of my other favorite artists.

Click on "Favorites" and you can go through the vids there.
