I’m so excited to introduce everyone to the songs on my 10th Album ‘The Shape Of History’
It’s been a helluva journey, I have consistently delivered music without compromise, music I am so proud of, and of course, it’s the fans who’ve sustained me, built me up, been loyal to me and come on the journey with me. It means so much to me!
“My 10th album! My songwriting has always been a wide mix of sounds, which naturally reflect the different music and references I have and love. My sweet spot is mid-late 70’s downtown NYC New Wave Punk: CBGB and Max’s Kansas City. It is from this sound that my taste for sequenced and dark NY and Euro electro and no-wave evolves, original punks ‘The Stooges’, glam rockers the ‘New York Dolls’, English Punk/Pop the ‘Sex Pistols’, French Yé-Yé Girls, American 1950’s Rock and Roll, Rockabilly and 60’s Motown, Girl Groups, Phil Spector, Brian Wilson. Also Hip Hop music, original B-Boys the ‘Beastie Boys’, East Coast versus West Coast, Dr. Dre! The King of New York Lou Reed and ‘The Velvet Underground’, black rhythm and blues from 1930’s depression era America, African American slave era Spirituals and therefore Country and Bluegrass music, Willie Nelson and his fellow Outlaws! Bob Dylan, Jamaican Ska, British Northern Soul and movie soundtracks! Big scores! Big opening numbers! George Gershwin, Leonard Bernstein and the New York Skyline ‘Rhapsody In Blue’. London and The Kinks ‘Waterloo Sunset’ or Paris, Saint Germain and Serge Gainsbourg ‘Initials BB’. Movies, movie directors, literature, authors, artists, activists, all filtered through the prism of my adventures and experiences in life and in music.
I have spent so much time with this music, I know it note for note and I love it and I am so happy for you to now make it your own."

Este album es con diferencia el mejor de Wendy J. ❤❤❤❤❤
Pre-Ordered Wendy's new album, can't wait till the 25th October, it will be like an early Christmas present.
🎉 Thank you for the update
Used to set up my walkman in a vison tye dyed hip pack when i raced BMX as a 18 yr old... Id load Trash city and time it so when the gate would drop the music would start cranking... cant tell u how many races that got me thru to a win on the US National Bicycle League in 18 over Expert... Glad ur still kickin!
So proud that you're still making classic rock music, I always enjoy your records, I'm sitting here with a sigar and a beer, still enjoying your classics and new records. I have all of your shirts and even have your vinyl Pop Art in my living room.
I hope that i'll get to see you live someday! Keep on rocking Wendy! :)
Greetings from the Netherlands.
Thank you Wendy. I am excited to get my copy.
Hope there will be some US dates too!

Arrrr the glorious Wendy James such a crush, you was far to real for the London media fuckers way back when.
Transvision Vamp is perfect pop rock for me timeless songs as fresh today as they were then.
You was a wild untamable rock goddess who took no shit.
Totally agree, Wendy was way too much for the very low grade music press/media at the time to handle and combined with the timeless Transvision Vamp 'perfect pop rock' songs they were a formidable band.
Sadly never received mine.
