HAMBI & THE DANCE - l'image craque 7' 1981



Hambi and the dance, originated from Liverpool as far as i’m aware, the only album i’m aware of is “Heartache” released on Virgin records in 1982 which includes the brilliant single “L’Image Craque” plus singles, “Too late to fly the flag” and “Living in a heartache” They were lead by “Hambi” with the bass player being “Garry ‘Gazza’ Johnson” who later went on to enjoy success with “China Crisis” There were a few other singles and bits and pieces released, but as far as i’m aware nothing has ever been released on C.D., unless you know different..

A POPULAR HISTORY OF SIGNS - comrades 1984 lp




Led by singer/bassist/keyboardist Andrew Jarman (vocally something of a David Byrne student), this London quartet drifts between arty synth-dance and lightly played mood music. Using dinky electronic percussion rather than a drummer in the early days, the enigmatic group's records alternately wax chilly, funky, humorless and clever

4.halcyon days
5.lenin
6.october already
7.father and son
8.five towns
9.land of the free
