Straddling the gap separating pub rock and power pop, the Kursaal Flyers managed to score one hit while they were active in the mid-'70s -- the Phil Spector-ish rush of 1976's "Little Does She Know" -- but their albums Chocs Away and Golden Mile endured as cult favorites, their status elevated by how the group's members went onto successful careers after the band's demise. Vocalist Paul Shuttleworth pursued a solo act and Will Birch went on to the Records alongside a separate career as a music journalist, which was enough to sustain fan interest for the band to reunite in 1988 for A Former Tour de Force Is Forced to Tour. The Kursaals didn't reunite afterward, but their cult popularity persisted long enough to see their complete recorded works released by Cherry Red in 2020 as Little Does She Know.
