This Fanning session was recorded on 9th October 1989. That is the sum total of our knowledge at this time.. the usually reliable irishrock.org has no listing. Update: Thanks to a comment from Paul we have the band lineup – Ray Colman (vocals), Ed Thornton (guitar), Phil Garry (bass) and Johnny Brewer (drums). Thank you KillianM2 for digging out the band photo!
Holy Zeus! Back in the eighties, I got a tape from this band (handwritten label and all) an EP, I guess, titled Love Not Real, which I dearly loved); alas, I never heard anymore from then, neither the guy who gave me the tape…
Then, when the Internet arrived, I searched for more information on them and didn’t find anything – until now! Thanks a lot for those new tracks! So, they were an Irish band? Has anyone more information about them? Other releases?
any chance you could tell us the band lineup and who played what? if you could find a photo or a piece of band artwork that would be the icing on the cake..
Spent a lot of time in my youth following these lads around Dublin. Seen them live several times. If my memory serves me right it was ray Colman from skerries singing. Ed Thornton from lusk on guitar, phil Garry from rush on bass and johnny brewer on the drums. Still have some tapes of them somewhere… I remember this session being on fanning’s show in 1989/90.
