In 1986, they signed with EMI and recorded the album, White Fields, issued in 1987. Later in 1987, the group moved to Atlantic Records for their next album, Wild Wild West, issued in summer 1988. The first single, "Wild, Wild West", climbed to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and the song's distinctive video received a lot of MTV airplay. In 1989, they released two singles from Wild Wild West; "Shake For The Sheik", which climbed to No. 28, and "Walking Through Walls", which climbed to No. 81.
