Naughtiest Girl Was a Monitor- Front 7”
I’m unable to scrape up a ton of information about today’s band, Sheffield wave act Naughtiest Girl Was a Monitor, though this oddball synth single is a real gem. More on the bombastic side, Naughtiest Girl Was a Monitor released but three 7” recordings before calling it quits.
As a bit of trivia, the band would lend equipment to budding brit-pop act Pulp, enabling them to cut their first recordings.
I’ve uploaded the entirety of the band’s 1981 Front 7” for your listening pleasure, which features two full-length wave tunes and closes with an instrumental.

1. Front
2. Sensation/No Sensation
3. Synthesizers (the Story So Far)
It seems as if the band’s output has been compiled on to one s/t disc, featuring a series of demo recordings alongside all three of their 7” singles. Seems as if it’s only available on vinyl, through Vinyl On Demand. Snap it up if you dig it!
