They were a guitar band formed in London in 1986, they were a highly influential indie outfit in the late 80s but now remain under-rated and under played. They did have a number of minor hits including Shine On, I Don't Know Why I Love You, Crush Me, and Destroy The Heart. I just love the lead singers voice and their dark sound. ;D  |

I do remember them but I was never really a fan You may be pleased to know that Monday 14th June sees the release of The Fontana Years, a budget compilation. I don't have a tracklisting as yet though. I'll keep you posted  |

Although I said budget, I should have probably said Mid-price (£7.99)  And yes I'll keep you informed. Did you know that they are still together?  |

Hmmm i'll have to look at their website to see if they tour much, though seeing them now will probably not provide the same magic that seeing them 15 years ago would have done! |

Didn't Guy Chadwick have a strange looking face! All I remember is 'Shine On' (wonderful) and 'Beatles and the Stones' (OKish) - but maybe will check it out more. |
