Gene Loves Jezebel “The Motion of Love”
Gene Loves Jezebel “The Motion of Love” 1987. Beggars Banquet. Double record 12″ single. This release includes the mid-tempo pop/rock “The Motion of Love” from the album The House of Dolls and their biggest hit, reaching #56 on the UK charts; the moody and swooping “A Fresh Slice;” “Bugg’s Bruises” which has industrial-strength rhythm punctuated with shrill vocal whoops; and and “Vagabond (A New Adventure).” With “The Motion of Love” and its album The House of Dolls, GLJ’s music and production veered from goth rock into alternative dance, and greater commercial success.
