Wham Fantastic 1983 11
Jahed Stetter
In 1983, I had moved to Sixth Form college and my social scene was starting to develop, I went to this concert with a few friends, Dave and a couple of girls from outside college and it was quite poppy for me. Club Tropicana had just come out and Wham were touring their first album, Fantastic.
Fantastic is the debut studio album by English pop duo Wham!, released on 1 July 1983.[4] It reached number one on the UK Albums Chart. It included the previously released singles "Young Guns", "Wham Rap!" and "Bad Boys". "Club Tropicana" was released as a single to coincide with the album's release. Although not on the album, "Club Fantastic Megamix" (a medley of songs from the album) was released against the band's wishes by Innervision soon after Fantastic, and whilst they were in proceedings to leave the label.[5]
Michael and Ridgeley embarked on a UK tour to promote the album in October 1983, opening at Aberdeen's Capitol Theatre, before going on to dates in Scotland, England and Wales, and ending in November at the Centre in Brighton.
