Although <a href="spotify:artist:34jw2BbxjoYalTp8cJFCPv">Heart</a> reconquered the charts during the mid- to late '80s, the band forfeited the organic sound of their early recordings in favor of pop gloss. By the early '90s, the <a href="spotify:artist:4lPDIYPFDs5gpcToUczJDs">Wilson</a> sisters (vocalist <a href="spotify:artist:4lPDIYPFDs5gpcToUczJDs">Ann</a> and guitarist <a href="spotify:artist:5gnpB90GzUR1gXpse5Kl4R">Nancy</a>) were ready to return to their roots, which they attempted to do in the form of a side band, the Lovemongers. The group (which saw the <a href="spotify:artist:5gnpB90GzUR1gXpse5Kl4R">Wilsons</a> joined by keyboardist Sue Ennis, guitarist <a href="spotify:artist:34Cyc5CIiUF5cCqcDIchG1">Frank Cox</a>, and drummer Ben Smith) debuted on the motion picture soundtrack to <a href="spotify:artist:4PRXUi2nNCs5ReLSVsY6BS">Cameron Crowe</a>'s 1992 film Singles, with a dead-on cover of the <a href="spotify:artist:36QJpDe2go2KgaRleHCDTp">Led Zeppelin</a> folk classic "The Battle of Evermore." The group issued a four-song EP a year later, The Battle of Evermore, which included the <a href="spotify:artist:36QJpDe2go2KgaRleHCDTp">Zep</a> cover once more, in addition to covers of <a href="spotify:artist:0Lpr5wXzWLtDWm1SjNbpPb">Todd Rundgren</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:3RwQ26hR2tJtA8F9p2n7jG">the Temptations</a>, and even the early <a href="spotify:artist:34jw2BbxjoYalTp8cJFCPv">Heart</a> classic "Crazy on You." The band took several years to offer a proper full-length release, which finally arrived in the form of 1997's Whirlygig. In 1998, the Lovemongers issued the ten-track holiday recording Here Is Christmas. ~ Greg Prato, Rovi
