Lawrence Burton's Do Easy cover Domestic Bliss' 'Life', back in the early 80s. This version is better than the original, to my ears. What an enormous compliment this is, it means a great deal to me. Brilliant!

We Will Soon Be Lovers

A-side of Domestic Bliss 45 from 1980 on Discovery Records.

Domestic Bliss - 'Child Battery' (1980 - Discovery Records)

B-side of our only single from 1980, played on John Peel's show, slagged off by the NME. What more could a young band ask for?

Domestic Bliss - 'Life' (Discovery Records - 1980)

The Hop's finest hour, from 1984: recorded for the 'Rhythm Method' compilation LP for Rhythm Studios in Leamington Spa. The picture used is of The Hop (mark 2), basically because I haven't got a decent image of The Hop (mark 3), which included Becky and Les on twin sax attack and excluded Toby on lead guitar. We're trailing this ahead of a mooted The Hop Bandcamp page we've been talking about for a while now.

The Hop - 'Back To Work' (1984)

Recorded in the same session as 'Back To Work', this represented where we were heading next, and its a crying shame we gave up instead of forging ahead, full steam.

The Hop - 'Song For Europe' (1984)

Our titular anthem, lost down the back of the sofa for decades, found again, nearly 40-years after its creation. Recorded at Woodbine Street studios with J. Rivers at the controls in the same session as 'Child Battery' and 'Life'.
