Bureau ORIG OZ LP Only for sheep NM ’81 WEA 600104 Dexy’s Midnight Runners

Original 1st Press OZ LP released in 1981 on WEA Records. Cat: 600104.

Formed in late 1980, the Bureau was a high-powered UK octet, several of whose personnel had defected from Dexys Midnight Runners. The line-up comprised Archie Brown (vocals), Pete Williams (bass/vocals), Geoff ‘JB’ Blythe (tenor saxophone), Steve Spooner (alto saxophone), Paul Taylor (trombone), Robert Jones (guitar/trumpet/vocals), Mick Talbot (b. 11 September 1958, London, England; keyboards/vocals) and Andy Growcott (percussion). The band was soon signed to Warner Brothers Records and, for a time, looked likely to rival Dexys Midnight Runners as a live attraction. Brown’s vocals, backed by a superbly excited brass backing, were in evidence on their first single, ‘Only For Sheep’. The excellent ‘Let Him Have It’, a Brown lyric written about the infamous Bentley/Craig murder case, sadly missed the charts, and despite a series of highly acclaimed live shows, the group disbanded.

Tracks: Only for sheep/ The first one/ Sentimental attachment/ Got to be now/ Looking for excitement/ Let him have it (sweet revenge)/ Find a way/ Bigger prize/ The carpetbaggers/ Helpless.
