Matt Bianco Whose Side

Cherry Pop Records is about to go continental with a deluxe reissue of Whose Side Are You On, the debut LP from U.K. jazz-pop outfit Matt Bianco. Originally comprised of vocalists Mark Reilly and Basia Trzetrzelewska, keyboardist Danny White and bassist Kito Poncioni (who only played on B-side "Big Rosie" and left before the full album sessions), Matt Bianco (a name meant to evoke '60s spy culture) delivered artistic, Latin-tinged jazz-pop that recalled and anticipated contemporary European

Basia London Warsaw

A little less than two years following the expanded reissue of Basia’s 1987 Time and Tide, Cherry Pop has returned to the catalogue of the Polish singer-songwriter with a similarly lavish 2-CD reissue of her sophomore album, London Warsaw New York.

basia time and tide

One of the Cherry Pop reissue label's newest titles for May is a greatly-expanded edition of Time and Tide, the solo debut album by Polish singer/songwriter Basia. Basia Trzetrzelewska first caught the public eye in England as the lead singer for sophisti-pop band Matt Bianco alongside vocalist Mark Reilly and keyboardist Danny White. Their similarities to Sade and Everything But the Girl, as well as their Top 30 hits "Get Out of Your Lazy Bed" and "Half a Minute," earned them widespread
