Windjammer - Windjammer II

Windjammer have an unusual dearth of information about them available online.

Here are a few facts:
- Windjammer is a fucking dreadful band name.
- They came from New Orleans.
- Tossing and Turning, the second track from this 1984 album was a massive soul-boogie hit. I have the 12” single, which I bought at the time.
- None of the members went on to do anything else of note, apart from the bass player, who has a website, the landing page of which shows him playing one of those vaguely ludicrous 7-string basses. He runs a studio, teaches and is a fat-fretboard gun for hire.
- I found this album hard work. It lurches between quiet zone smooth, which made my arsehole clench with irritation, and really bad electro, which made my arsehole clench with irritation. Altogether not an enjoyable experience, but good if you're doing Kegel exercises, I suppose.
- I picked this up for $1 in an op shop. Glad I didn’t fork out full price for it at the time.
