The Review formed around 1978 in Clevedon and played alot of Youth Club gigs. Became three piece Mike, Martin & Taff. It followed a small tour across Belgium and then they produced their only record called 'England's Glory'. Taff joined Disorder, Martin the Tea House Camp and Mike Eagle formed Unity Station. The Review was a band that was like the other mod revival bands of the day, but a cheaply recorded one, although the band were still very punchy. This record actually has All The Madman printed labels on the disc, as opposed to the plain white labels of the previous Madmen release. If you hear this record, listen carefully to the intro of the B-side, sounds very much like the first few bars of Londons Calling by The Clash!
