Sophisticated Boom Boom

Sophisticated Boom Boom was an all Scottish girl group from Glasgow in the early ‘80s taking their name from the Shangri-Las song. The group were influenced mainly by Siouxsie and the Banshees and Dolly Mixture. The band released 'The Only One' on a 1984 compilation album called The Girls Can't Help It - A Modern Girl Group. The group later changed their name to His Latest Flame and released several singles in the late 80's before calling it a day.
Not to be confused with the Swiss all-girl new wave band of the same name.
