The Wonder Stuff: Never Loved Elvis
Keith Cameron, Vox, July 1991
THE WONDER STUFF are turning into a Madness for the '90s. Both outlived most of their contemporaries to develop their root sound along the lines of the classic English pop blueprint, originally laid down by the Beatles. Both also never made truly great albums until some bright spark sussed that their genius ear for a great pop tune was fully realised only on singles — bung all the 45s together, and there's your definitive Madness/Stuffies album.
