Their debut EP, Love On The Terraces (produced by Madness's Mark Bedford reached number 9 on the UK Indie Chart in 1982, with follow-up "Hangover" reaching number 4 the following year.Debut album The Revolution Starts at Closing Time also reached number 4, and was followed up in 1984 by a second album, They May Be Drinkers Robin, But They're Still Human Beings.
