First saw them at the first WOMAD festival in Shepton Mallet, in 1982. Where they brought on the Drummers of Burundi to play with them on “All my colours”, I think.

Ian McCulloch subsequently announced that they were Echo and the Burundi-Men

On the same night also performing there were The Beat.

"Never properly into them but love The Killing Moon, caught them a couple of times at festivals just to here it live and always enjoyed the full set"

The Killing Moon for me was there crowning glory & an all time 80's classic - Who remembers Fiction Factory - Feels like Heaven - Flock of Seagulls - Wishing (If I Had A Photograph Of You?)

A bit off topic & genre...

Yet.. Joe Le Taxi - Vanessa Paradis.. I mean you would tho wouldn't you?

TOTP Google It.!

lol

Yeah, plenty of great songs. Bring On The Dancing Horses is probably my favourite.
