Respectable / Showing out (Get fresh at the weekend) - Mel & Kim

Mel & Kim Appleby didn't release a lot of singles, but I managed to buy quite a few copies through the years with different sleeves and configurations. The latest addition is this single in the Atlantic Oldies Series, presumably released some time after their success in 1986 and 1987. 

The single brings together 'Respectable' and 'Showing out', their first two singles under the professional guidance of Stock, Aitken & Waterman. There's an interesting exhibition of Mel & Kim memorabilia at the V&A museum in London right now, check it out if you can.
