Zespół powstał w Londynie w 1981r. z inicjatywy wokalisty i twórcy
piosenek Mike'a Scotta, który pozostał jego jedynym stałym członkiem.
Wydana w 1988r. płyta "Fisherman's Blues" jest czwartą w dorobku
zespołu. W jej nagraniu wzięli udział muzycy irlandzcy: Steve Wickham
(skrzypce), Dave Ruffy (perkusja), Guy Chambers (instr. klawiszowe) i
Marco Weissman (bas). Razem stworzyli proste, folkowe brzmienie, a cała
płyta uważana jest za najcieplejszą i najlepszą w karierze grupy. Teraz
ukazuje się w wersji specjalnej: na drugim krążku zamieszczono
niepublikowane wcześniej kompozycje.
