July 1981 - Second single as 'Neon': Communication Without Sound
We used live drums and bass, and the guitar was played by Neil Taylor. 'Remote Control' was just Rob and I, I did all the vocals on both tracks. It was interesting to work with real instruments again. [no more tracks were cut at this time] We then acquired Curt Smith [later in Tears for Fears] on bass, and Manny Elias on drums. We gigged around for a while in the West Country. The original line up was me on vox, Rob on keys, Neil Taylor on guitar, Curt Smith on bass and Manny Elias on drums. Then Neil left and was replaced by Roland Orzabal [later in Tears for Fears].
