The Books are a great, often overlooked UK new wave band from 1980. They were largely the brainchild of Stephen Betts. He sang and played synthesizer. Lynda Berger also played synths, with Robert Kelly on bass, Chris Pyzer Pye on guitar and Paul Moon on drums. The album was produced by Colin Thurston. Stephen Betts later reemerged in 1986 (through 1988) as The Late Howard Hughes. https://www.discogs.com/artist/421292-L-Howard-Hughes The Books released 3 singles and 1 album in 1980. I've compiled the album with the non-album singles and b-sides. Here are a few good Books tracks.
