The Models
The Models' first vinyl release was a giveaway single in
November 1979, entitled Early Morning Brain. The band was
dissatisfied with the single's release and temporarily broke up as
a result.
In 1981 the band released a 10" mini-album called Cut
Lunch.
Prior to joining The Models in 1982, James Freud had enjoyed
success as leader of Australian bands Berlin and Teenage Radio
Stars, and as a solo artist.
In 1985, the single Out Of Mind Out Of Sight reached number 1
in Australia and number 36 in the USA.
The band's sax player, James Valentine, left the band in
February 1987 to take up a position as presenter on the ABC's
children's television program The Afternoon Show.
James Freud died in Hawthorn, Melbourne, on 4 November 2010. He
was 51.
