Transvision Vamp were formed in West London by Wendy James and Nick Christian Sayer, along with Dave Parsons and Tex Axile. They were signed to MCA Records by A&R legend Dave Ambrose and released their breakthrough debut album Pop Art in 1988, featuring hit singles such as ‘I Want Your Love', 'Tell That Girl To Shut Up’ and ‘Revolution Baby’. Second album Velveteen, which included the smash hit ‘Baby I Don’t Care’, was released the following year and reached number 1 in the UK Charts and 10 other countries around the world.
Their third and final album, Little Magnets Versus The Bubble Of Babble, was released in 1991 and was their biggest USA release, securing No.1 spots in all the indie and college charts. Ironically, the album was not made available domestically in the UK until years later. The band did two world tours that year, and Kurt Cobain famously attended many of the US shows, wearing TVV t-shirts and declaring himself a fan. Wendy cited this album as her favourite, specifically highlighting the song 'If Looks Could Kill'.
In 1992, Transvision Vamp called time-out in San Francisco. During the span of Transvision Vamp, Wendy was made a cover star of many magazines worldwide, was photographed by everyone from David Bailey for Tatler Magazine, Jurgen Teller for The Face Magazine and i-D Magazine. She became known for her forthright TV appearances and became an international household name.
