Spandau Ballet was a popular British band in the 1980s. Initially inspired by a mixture of funk and synthpop, the group eventually mellowed into a mainstream pop act. The band's history began in 1976, and was originally called 'The Cut' during their formative years with Gary Kemp as singer/songwriter and Steve Norman on guitar, later saxophone and percussion. Gary and Steve were both attending Dame Alice Owen's School, Islington (which later moved to Potters Bar), and were close friends. They shared a similar interest in music and a common desire to form a band. Next came fellow student John Keeble, who had met Steve when they both discovered the drum kit in the school’s music room, and would regularly meet at lunchtimes to practice. Following John in joining the band was bass player Michael Ellison, and after that was was Tony Hadley as lead singer, who approached Steve Norman one day in the 6th form common room. After a few months, Richard Miller replaced Michael Ellison on bass, before Gary's brother Martin Kemp finally took over the role, joining the band a couple of years later. By this time, the band had already played some considerable gigs and had gained live experience, which would eventually prove fruitful. Steve Dagger, a friend of the band members, was then asked by Steve and Gary to manage them. He was to be an integral part of the band's initial and continuing success. The band was called 'The Makers' in the early years, but profess to have changed their name after a friend’s (BBC London 94.9 DJ Robert Elms) visit to Spandau, a borough of Berlin, the inspiration being from graffiti he saw in the lavatory of a club there. The term Spandau Ballet referred to the spasms of the Nazi war criminals as they "danced at the end of the rope", when they were hanged at Spandau Prison. This is a contentious point. The more likely source of the name came in fact from graffiti on the wall of a lavatory in The Venue, London (Victoria) around 1980, where members of the originally named band worked. These members were; (Michael J) Mick Austin (now artist), David Wardill (later David Agar of The Passions), and Mark Robinson (musician). They had been playing under the name Spandau Ballet since 1978 and had played in London once under this name at the Hope & Anchor, Islington, London on May 6th, 1979 supporting The Softies. The new Spandau Ballet, with Martin Kemp and Tony Hadley, began performing with this name and generating a positive buzz around London. Their music prior to then was very R&B in the style of the early Rolling Stones or The Kinks, but became more electronic as they started to hang out in clubs such as Billys and Blitz nightclub, where they would listen to bands like Kraftwerk and Telex. The Blitz was regarded as the birthplace of a new 1980s music and fashion phenomenon called New Romanticism. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Spandau Ballet - The Best Of Spandau Ballet --------------------------------------------------------------------- Artist...............: Spandau Ballet Album................: The Best Of Spandau Ballet Genre................: Pop Source...............: CD Year.................: 1991 Ripper...............: EAC (Secure mode) / LAME 3.92 & Codec................: LAME 3.97 Version..............: MPEG 1 Layer III Quality..............: Insane, (avg. bitrate: 320kbps) Channels.............: Joint Stereo / 44100 hz Tags.................: ID3 v1.1, ID3 v2.3 Included.............: NFO, MD5, SFV, PLS Covers...............: Front Back CD --------------------------------------------------------------------- Tracklisting --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.
