Human League

Saw some recent footage and although they are still great, I don't feel the urge to think of the two ladies as I knock one out anymore in their current state. A shame, as they made regular appearances in my adolescent fantasies :-(

Does Phil in makeup still feature?

Fairly eclectic range of music you are into @BimboBob. Which is not a bad thing.

Quite like all of their early stuff up to their album “Crash” after that it’s all a bit meh. Phil is obviously a talented guy but always preferred Depeche Mode.

First album I bought was Dare saw them a few years ago at Rewind they are still great in my opinion.

When I was a student in Sheffield a mate I'd met there who was a local knew someone who worked at the Limit, which was a tiny sweaty fleapit of a club, that was bulldozed years ago. He was given the nod that the Human League were gonna play a secret gig there as a warm up to a world tour they were about to start. Managed to get tickets before word got out. One of the best and most memorable gigs I've ever been to. Seeing one of the biggest (at the time) bands in the world playing in front of about 300 people

My mrs danced with Phil Oakey in Pips. She didn’t know who he was until the DJ shone a light on him and said we have PO here tonight from the Human League (she still didn’t know him after that).

They're a bit before my time but I used to love putting mirror man on the jukebox in the pub I worked in when in my early 20's.

Got a few cracking tunes to be fair

they still have it.

sadly for Phil he hasn't ??? hair wise haha that great style of the 1980s long flicker as gone south and is now bald is a coot

In my view they were far better before the split. Reproduction and Travelogue great albums. Dare was ok and more mainstream.

At least he was half fashionable :) Top band from my(very early) childhood.
