Top (band)

Top was a British rock band from Liverpool, signed to Island Records in the early 1990s.

Top's drummer, Alan Wills, had played with The Wild Swans in the 1980s.[1] The group signed to Island Records and released the album Emotion Lotion in 1991. The album spawned two hit singles in the UK: "She's Got All the World", which peaked at #80, and "Number One Dominator", which reached #67.[2] In the US, "Number One Dominator" reached #17 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart.[3] Billboard described "Number One Dominator" as a "swirling alternative track" and complimented its "layered vocals" as having a "mysterious and irresistible electronic quality".[4] Alan Wills went on to set up and run British record label Deltasonic.
