Radio de The Bureau

The Bureau were a New Wave soul group formed in late 1980 in Birmingham, England when the original lineup of Dexy's Midnight Runners split-up. Ex-Dexy's members Pete Williams (bass), Geoff Blythe (tenor sax), Steve Spooner (alto sax), Stoker (drums), and Mick Talbot (keyboards) were joined by Paul Taylor (trombone), Rob Jones (guitar and trumpet), and Archie Brown (vocals) from a group called The Upset which had supported Dexy's on tour. The Bureau retained their Dexy's roots and played powerful brass driven sounds.
