Bio:

New wave rock band who began as the last lineup of the Myster Men, a prominent Dublin band during 1980-82, until they changed their name in late 1982. Apparently the band used a mime act at one time called Bol The Clown & Donal who interpreted songs and also performed on their own as support act (anyone out there witness this?). "Russian Around" was a minor hit at the time of it's release -- there's even a video. The single was recorded in Germany during a 3-week tour. The final mix was done by Phil Lynott but he's not credited on the sleeves as they'd already been printed by that stage. The band relocated to London but were unsuccessful and guitarist Frank Washington AKA Frank Kearns (extreme left in photo above) returned to Dublin after about a year and formed Cactus World News circa 1984-85. Unreleased tracks include "European Limousine", "The Haunting" and "Rain On The Wind."

Lineup: Pete Delaney (vocals), Frank Washington (guitar), Tony Sledger (bass) and Noel McMurray (drums); Jim Miller replaced Frank Washington on guitar during 1985-86 when Frank left to form Cactus World News; Noel McMurray now lives in the US and currently plays with A Step Further.
