Biography
Founded in 1993, Clock was a Eurodance / hip house project formed by dance music DJ / producer Stu Allen and house / trance producer Pete Pritchard. Recruiting rapper ODC MC (real name: Marcus Thomas) and singer Tinka (real name: Lorna Saunders), the group released their debut single, âHolding On,â in 1993. A promising start, the single reached Number 66 in the UK Singles chart. They scored Top 40 hits with âThe Rhythmâ and âKeep the Fires Burningâ in 1994 before hitting Number 7 with âAxel F,â their reinterpretation of Harold Faltermeyerâs 1984 hit taken from the motion picture Beverly Hills Cop. Their next single, a cover of Tag Teamâs âWhoomph! (There It Is),â was their most successful single, reaching Number 4 in 1995. Clockâs debut album, Itâs Timeâ¦, hit the Top 30 when it was released in 1995. The groupâs second album, About Time 2, was released in 1997 and included their hit covers of the Four Seasonsâ âOh What A Night,â Hot Chocolateâs âYou Sexy Thingâ (retitled âU Sexy Thingâ), and KC & the Sunshine Bandâs âThatâs the Way I Like It.â Clockâs last Top 20 single was their 1998 cover of Mick Jacksonâs âBlame It on the Boogie,â a song that was a hit for the Jacksons in 1978. Clockâs third album, Boogie Sound, was only released in Japan in 1999. Although the group remained moderately successful in Japan and Europe, internal conflicts caused a rift in the group, and they split in 2001. Founding member Stu Allen died on September 22, 2022.
