ON THIS DAY (sort of) ... in 1981 - BELLADONNA

31 photos from the Fulham Greyhound

BELLADONNA were an odd band, being New Wave with interesting ideas, but also a bit Pub Rock and Prog (notice flute and old fashioned double keyboards). Just like The Elgin Marbles who also juggled that old/new interface they were great live, but I don’t think they ever released anything. The singing bassist (above) later led the equally interesting Swimming In Sand.
