The Tourists

The Tourists were a British rock and pop band. They achieved brief success in the late 1970s before the band split in 1980. Two of its members, singer Annie Lennox and guitarist Dave Stewart, went on to international success as Eurythmics.

As the Tourists they released a number of track as singles and had quite some success, I saw the band at Reading Uni, and they were a firm favourite at the time.

The tracks I want to list here are a cross section of their output...

'The Loneliest man in the World' and the Dusty Springfield cover "I Only Want to Be with You" both from 1979.



And from 1980 "So Good to Be Back Home Again"
