My band Faded Vision although starting out as a punk band when we were 13/14 in '78, at this point I was into the Gang of Four, the Raincoats & the Rough Trade scene in '79, hence the keyboardist & cold war lyrics!
I went onto to form and front the band Claytown Troupe with Abbo from UKDK as a manger.
