Graduate
 Generally lumped in with the late 70s Ska
Revival/Mod Revival due to their
suits and their atypical almost-hit Elvis Should Play Ska,
this Bath-based five piece deserved better.
Sharing roots with The Police and The
Jam, they were really New Wave
guitar-poppers - tight, jerky and heavily stylised but with some
very effective hooks.
Some of the teen-tantrum lyrics would no doubt bring bring a
rosy glow of embarrassment to Orzabal's cheeks these days, but the
way toward Tears For Fears is
obvious in others.
