Ep 60: Wang Chung (Retrospective)

For Play That Rock n' Roll's 60th episode, we are taking a look back at the full discography and career of the '80s New Wave band Wang Chung. In this episode, we cover their early days as "Huang Chung", their rise to pop stardom, their various high-profile soundtrack appearances, and what caused the band to go on hiatus for several years. We also discuss lead singer Jack Hues' side project with Tony Banks (from Genesis), the time they performed Nelly's "Hot In Herre" on national TV, and what the band is up to today. To give further insight into some of the topics covered, I have inserted clips of my 2021 interview with Wang Chung lead singer Jack Hues at relevant points.
