Mark Shaw formed Then Jerico in via an advert in Melody Maker and debuted the band live in London in 1983.
After a lineup change and just six more live gigs in London & New York they signed a 7-album deal with London Records in August 1984. The band recorded several tracks with producer Martin Rushent, but London refused to release the first single ‘The Big Sweep’ due to Shaw’s controversial lyrical subject matter (Rupert Murdoch & Robert Maxwell).
In 1985 the band released it as a 1,000 Limited Edition 12” Single on the ‘Immaculate’ indie label owned by Rushent & Pete “Buzzcocks” Shelley.
It entered the Indie Charts at #12 finally persuading London Records to pay to release a further 500 the following week. In 1986 dance-rock anthem ‘Fault’ was released on
London (also produced by Rushent & remixed in NYC by John Luongo) as a 7” single and just 10,000 x 12” singles, bringing international underground club success.
