album by the British indie groupDodgy .The first single released from this album was 'Water Under The Bridge', in early 1993. The video of the song featured Dodgy in Amsterdam.
'Water Under The Bridge' saw the beginning of "the way of dodgy", a step-by-step enlightened 'dodgy' philosophy that would appear on the record sleeves for each of their future recordings. The artwork also included their 'mdv' logo.
The second single from The Dodgy Album was "Lovebirds", a song that had won them award on Gary Crowley's GLR show during the band's youth. Included on the single was the acoustic live favourite "Big Brown Moon".
Continuing their new shiny artwork single success, Dodgy released "I Need Another", the cover of which delightfully depicted the band as garden gnomes and included a campfire version of "Never Again", complete with the sound of crackling logs.
Singles prior to The Dodgy Album had been:- "Summer Fayre"/"St. Lucia" (double E-side)- "Worth the Blood" / "The Elephant" (Black & White single)- "Easy Way" / "Seems Like A Bad Day"
