Personal Hygiene 1986 to 1988. ‘Hygiene’ were the Godfathers of style and the masters of their 80’s universe. Like all supernova’s they were gone too soon. Split up due to petty personal squabbles (and a lack of money, equipment and anywhere to rehearse!)

Coercion 1992. After getting some free 'Coercion' T-shirts at a Depeche Mode Fan Club convention at the Camden Palace on 15th November 1992 (Coercion were the DM tribute band that night), Paul & Al (when wearing their freebies) used to impress girls by telling them we were in the band. Had to cease this sad charade when Paul mistakenly left his T-shirt on the floor one night and his dog pissed all over it!

	Looking good boys!

Note. By a strange quirk of fate, Paul Castle who was destined to join ‘The Phantoms’ in Dec 2000 would not only find himself playing the same 16 year old bass guitar once owned by Rob Stuart-Jack from ‘Never Before Midnight’ and ‘Tres Bizzare’ (see Marks family tree) but also living in his old flat as well. Small world.
