Funky Dory


 

Funky Dory is the debut solo album by Rachel Stevens, formerly of the pop group S Club 7. Funky Dory was released in the UK on September 29th 2003 off the back of the #2 debut single 'Sweet Dreams My LA Ex', reaching #9 in the UK album chart. However, it would fall away in subsequent weeks almost without a trace, and when the single 'Funky Dory' was released in December 2003, only charting at #26, the album failed to resurface.

  • In early 2004, Rachel recorded two brand new songs - 'Some Girls', a song recorded with cult producer Richard X and released in aid of the Sport Relief charity, reaching #2 in the UK single chart, and a cover of the Andrea True Connection song 'More More More' which was used to advertise Sky Sports' 2004-2005 football season - leading her record label Polydor to re-release Funky Dory with the two new songs added.
