1) One oddity from my collection is the band Fresh, a ‘boy band’ constructed by Simon Napier-Bell. Simon Napier-Bell had been a manager for The Yardbirds way back in the mid 1960’s, he went onto manage an early Marc Bolan outfit called Johns Children. He also did the music for the 1968 film ‘Here We Go Around The Mulberry Bush’ and as Nuzz and myself know well, was fittingly set and filmed in glamorous 1960’s Stevenage New Town.

Soon they took their mix of street dance, jumpstyle and their own moves to the local stages, performing at clubs, schools, dance competitions, and when the mood took them, right there on the street, entertaining the stunned...

In April 2008 The Pineapple Thief launched the Kscope label with the critically acclaimed album, Tightly Unwound. Initially a solo outlet for Bruce’s music the first album, Abducting, was released on Cyclops Records in May 1999.
