Description
Relatively short-lived (1979 to 1981) new-wave band from Guildford, UK, formed around David Fenton. Managed by Bruce Foxton of The Jam and Paul Weller’s father, John Weller, they enjoyed worldwide success with their second single “Turning Japanese.” After 2 albums, tours of the US, UK and Australia, subsequent disenchantment with the insincerity of the record industry and a lukewarm reception to their second album, the band dissolved. The band started touring again in 2016 and in March 2020, the band released the singles “Crazy” and “Together.” In May 2020, the band released their 3rd album “Together.
Crazy is an excellent single. Think Buzzcocks meets Elvis Costello. Great Power Pop/New Wave with some great hooks and melodies.
