Inserting frisky funk licks into homespun jangle-pop, Orange Juice almost immediately became a flagship band for the international pop underground in the 1980s and beyond. Formed in the Glasgow suburb of Bearsden in 1979, the group debuted with “Falling and Laughing,” an excitable snapshot of vocalist/guitarist Edwyn Collins’ droll lyrics and suave singing. After signing to local label Postcard—cofunded by members of the band and later home to Aztec Camera and Josef K—Orange Juice cut a distinctly melodic path through early-’80s post-punk while also referencing classic soul songs along the way. Their disco-kissed 1983 single “Rip It Up” became a Top 10 UK single, but the band folded only two years later. Beyond their robust influence on Scottish acts like Franz Ferdinand, Orange Juice introduced the world to Collins, who scored a solo hit with 1995’s mod-tinged “A Girl Like You.”
