RECORDS

 Independent label: Music International Records managed at least three singles. It issued singles in M-000 numerical series. "Inner Force" was formed as a result of the break up of Dambala. With the addition of "Stephy Sharpstrings" who untill then had been guitarist with "Here And Now". The band now had a different sound as you can hear when you listen to some tracks. The band continued to be "Reggae" based but with a slightly different direction. The band had a manager who got them a lot of gigs on the college circuit, while Stephys' contacts in the festival world would prove to be very helpfull. The band signed a recording deal with St Johns Wood based "Music International Records" run by David Mintz (ex manager of the Average White Band), which resulted in the single "Holiday/Am I wasting My Time. Inner Force: Alvin Christie (Guitar/vocals), Kelvin Lovell (Drums), Mark St Louis (Bass/vocals), Stephan Lewry (Lead guitar/vocals), Thomas Caddette (Keyboards/vocals). Foreign Press was a Manchester band active between 1979 and 1989, whose first single was co-produced by Joy Division/New Order manager Rob Gretton, and their third by Bernard Sumner.

Band Members were Bass, Les Carey, Guitar, Stuart Bowe, Guitar, Synthesizer - Stuart Smith, Vocals - Ralph Bowe. The quintet had previously played as Emergency.
