I'm trying to find a few of releases by the 80s band Messengers - they are best known for supporting Ultravox.

I'm after anything but particularly an album

It's Been Twenty Years, Let's Try Turning Up the Volume

I think they also had 3 singles out.

Can anyone please help?
 
Well, this is a toughie!!
I like a good old rummage round the interweb, but cant find any mp3s yet...
The info you want re: releases=
http://www.discogs.com/artist/Messengers+(3)
And to own (although nothing in stock)=

Ok.... not one to give up:
here is the first single:

Doesn't look like there was an initial album??
The Midge Ure Site where I think you gleamed the orig info looks like the best bet to download their new album and get the links to the old singles... if I find a digital version - will re-edit this.
I have found a few references to songs named:
The Messengers,"Dancing Bear"
The Messengers,"Night Town"
but I have no idea what they are...
Sorry couldn't of been more help.
Regards,
FWD
(p.s. - I wouldn't normally 'advertise' a website, but for obscure - very obscure oddities do try:
http://itshouldhavebeenahit.blogspot.com/ There's quite a few gems in there).

Hi FWD, thanks for the post & effort - links etc.

I've had a good trawl on the webby & will continue to do so - The Ultravox forum may be the best place to hang in order to find what I'm after. If you can uneart anything that would be sweet.

Rite - I'm off to the blog you mention :)

Cheers, R
