{"title":"China Crisis","description":"\u003cp\u003eChina Crisis is a British new wave and synth-pop band formed in 1979 by core members Gary Daly and Eddie Lundon. Their music, characterized by a blend of synthesizers, acoustic guitars, and an emphasis on melody, played a significant role in the early 1980s post-punk revival. They are best remembered for their hits such as \"Wishful Thinking\" and \"Black Man Ray\", which showcase their distinctive fusion of electronic elements and pop sensibilities. Despite being less known compared to their contemporaries, China Crisis' contribution to the synth-pop genre underscores their relevance in the history of UK pop music.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"working-with-fire-and-steel","title":"Working With Fire And Steel","description":"\u003cp\u003eStereo\/Stereo promo copy. This U.K. group never had a hit in the U.S., but this 1983 single shows how potent they were. If you're a fan of Synth Pop, you won't want to be without this one! The label on this promo says \"Edited for Radio Airplay,\" but the track time is only 4 seconds less than the album version. I don't know exactly what this means, but I'm assuming it's a remix. (I didn't hear anything that sounded like changed lyrics.) If you know more about this version of the song, do let me know through the Contact page.  Note: This beautiful promo copy comes in a vintage Warner Bros. Records factory sleeve. It has Mint labels and pristine sound.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"China Crisis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48538588872937,"sku":null,"price":8.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0742\/8508\/9001\/files\/chinacrisis1.jpg?v=1752243185"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.classic45s.com\/collections\/china-crisis\/jadepuma-category-techno-synth-pop.oembed","provider":"Classic 45's","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
