Now there was a great British band of the early 80's and I do stress the
early 80's as I do believe that they llost thier way once they had
achieved pop success. Their early music such as Love meeting love,
Starchild et al was good stuff and brings back memories of the Royalty
in Southgate and all of those great Showstopper promotions with the
likes of Foroggy,Pete Tong, Bob James et al on the ones and twos.
Why does it so often happen that when bands achieve a modicum of success
that they decide to abandon their principles and then produce drab
music? It must be good listening to some of their early stuff. I will
have to raid my vinyl cellar to appreciate some of that stuff again.
