The band's first release was a contribution the various artists compilation Your Secret's Safe With Us in 1982.
They came to fame on the cult 1980s Channel 4 music TV show The Tube as part of the show's Hull music special, and had three hits on the UK Indie Chart with "Naughty Miranda", "I Wish I Had", and "Jack Pelter & His Sex Change Chicken".
