Steve Miro and the Eyes (as requested)
Steve Miro was on
e of the founders of Object Records, a late-'70s/early-'80s UK DIY label, which also included the Spherical Objects, Future Primitives, and others. This 1980 album is sort of like a wimpy version of the Stranglers, if you can imagine such a thing. Upfront, trebly bass lines and prominent organ, emphasis on lyrics (even though they're not so great). None of the Strangler's bite or snarl, though. In fact there are times when it gets downright poppy, with '60s pop-style background vocals, and even a synth solo. More melodic overall than a lot of the post-punk crowd of the time.

Miro is an important personality of art-punk in Britain and specificly the main man behind the Object label.

Steve Miro was in no way the main man at Object Music, that was Steve Solamar, frontman for Spherical Objects and the other half (with Steve Miro) of the Noyes Brothers.
Object Music was Solamar's label and he was the driving force who kept that ship together.
While Steve Miro was an integral part of the label and the Manchester Music Collective, it was Solamar who attended to the majority of the work behind the label.
HI,
Could you pelase repost? I've been looking for these abums for a long time.
Thanks.
Glad to get the reposted links for this as I missed it first time and I am defiantly enjoying this quirky lo-fi post punk.
Duncan and Fred were mates at that time. Would love to make contact again. Got a nice photo of Fred from around 74. He might like it.
