Disappeared back into East Anglian obscurity having never really left it. Part of the scene that included Farmers Boys and the Higsons.

Pleasure is still one of my favourite albums, they split up soon after recording it.

The last one is from 1979 but they had there only minor hits in the early 1980s, of the four one married the drummer of Madness whilst drummer June Miles-Kingston would end up having a minor hit with Jimmy Somerville at the end of the decade.
