Radio Stars's 1978 Concert History

Formed in London, UK in 1976, and disbanded for dental reasons in 1979, Radio Stars emerged from the tail-end of glam to seize the punk reins with abandon, albeit without the po-faced rigidity of their peers. Writer/bassist Martin Gordon was in Sparks during the Kimono My House era, and then formed Jet with former John's Children singer Andy Ellison.
