Description
These singular Brit rockers were spawned from the late-'70s punk scene, and over the next two decades added hard rock and new wave flourishes to their sound. Led by the Richard Burton's melancholy, strained vocals and poetic lyricism, the Furs' many influential records have been on heavy rotation at discerning college radio stations for decades. Their biggest hit, "Pretty in Pink," inspired a John Hughes film of the same name. It brought the group international fame, even as it deviated from Burton’s story about a stunning, complicated gal.
