Red Box - Train

RED BOX
Train
1990 EastWest

Notes :
London-based art-pop act who debuted as a traditional five-piece band but by 1985 had been reduced to a duo, Simon Toulson-Clarke (vocals, guitar) and Julian Close (keyboards, programming, saxophone). That year saw them achieve the first of two UK top 10 hits with the anthemic "Lean On Me (Ah-Li-Ayo)", followed in 1986 by an ambitious album "The Circle And The Square" on which the duo's sound was augmented by a small army of guest musicians, and from which was lifted a second hit "For America". Put out of action for a while by contractual disputes, Red Box finally returned in 1989, with Close replaced by Alastair Gavin. The second album "Motive" suffered from a lack of promotion and Red Box officially "retired" soon after.

Charmin' Children - (0) 1140

CHARMIN' CHILDREN
(0) 1140
1992 Virgin Records (Benelux)

Notes :
Despite of the Manchester sound, Charmin' Children was a Dutch band, from the small town of Hulst. The rhythm-section of the band were some ten years older than the rest, who were only 16-17 years of age.

They were picked up by a local record store owner, Joost Neelemans, who managed the band and produced the band's first cassette,  which was mainly sold in his own record store. That same year he got the band a record deal with Virgin records where the first EP "Uck" was released. Later that year "(0) 1140" the first (and only) full size album followed.

To their own surprise the band was more popular in Manchester than they were in their home town. When John Lamens (vocals, guitar) moved to Manchester, the band fell apart.
