Roaring Boys

[cassfrank]

Not really a "where are they now" but a good summary of what went wrong with this great band. From Guardian:

Roaring Boys
Looked after by Rod Stewart's manager, this Oxbridge-educated outfit were an example of a major label getting it majorly wrong. In the Duran Duran mid-80s, every company was looking for its own group of mildly androgynous New Romantics who could also write hits, and the Roaring Boys were Epic Records's shot. Signed for a huge advance, they had the benefit of the business's most expensive stylists, producers and video directors but their sole single failed to reach the top 75, and their name became synonymous with corporate folly.
Hype: 7/10, success: 1/10

That's probably all true, but "House Of Stone" is truly a gem.
