In the US, they were listed as Wax UK. The band is best known for the hit singles "Right Between the Eyes" and "Bridge to Your Heart".
In 1981, 10cc were working on what would become their album Ten Out of 10. Andrew Gold was invited to record with the band by Lenny Waronker, head of A&R at Warner Bros. It led to an offer to join the band – an offer Gold declined because of other commitments.
After 10cc split in 1983, Graham Gouldman persuaded Gold to visit him at his home in Mottram St Andrew, England, to write and spend some time together. He ended up staying for seven months. During this period they wrote enough songs for an album. They chose World in Action as the band name and released a single "Don't Break My Heart". Soon afterwards, they changed the name to Common Knowledge. A second single "Victoria" was released, but both singles failed to get any attention and the album was shelved.
Under the supervision of Harvey Lisberg, Gouldman's long-time manager, they started working on songs for a new album, changed labels, and took the name Wax. Wax released three studio albums between 1986 and 1989. Their only British hit was "Bridge to Your Heart" which reached No. 12 in autumn 1987. A Top of the Pops appearance and a tour followed. The duo were about to split in 1990 when Gouldman was offered the chance to reform 10cc with Eric Stewart. Gold appeared on the comeback album ...Meanwhile playing guitar on "Charity Begins at Home" and sang lead vocals on "Ready To Go Home" from 10cc's last album Mirror Mirror, which he had intended to be a guide vocal only - but Stewart liked what he had done with the track and his vocals remained.
In 1998, their Common Knowledge album was finally released as common knowledge.com with four new tracks under the Wax name. A collection of out-takes and rarities, Wax Bikini, was released in 2000 through Gold's website. In 1988, American pop singer Nicolette Larson covered the band's song "Shadows of Love", which served as the title of the album on which it appeared."
