Bands nobody ever talks about anymore in the "England" chapter of the 1980 new wave guide I just bought for $2 off a seemingly homeless guy set up on the sidewalk of St Marks

The first couple of Judy Tzuke singles ('For You' and especially 'Stay with Me till Dawn') are both really nice imo. Like Tom said, not new wave at all, sounds more like I dunno, Christine McVie ?

That's high praise in these parts, stranger

Isn't there a female comedian with a similar name to hers?

That does not look enticing.

Thought it was Ken Dodd at first tbh.

Judging by some of the other artists included, I'm surprised Ken Dodd's not in the "England" chapter of the 1980 new wave guide Chuck bought for $2 off a seemingly homeless guy set up on the sidewalk of St Marks

Echo & the Diddymen amirite?

Too early for (Knotty) Ash though

"There are questions in corners of my mind that lurk
Like how do the road gritters get to work
Answer me that and you could win a cruise
And here’s Judie Tzuke to take us up to the news"

Actually, turns out I don't own a Darling album after all. (I was probably confusing them with either Deaf School, Dalek I Love You, or both.)
