Kissing the Pink

Kim would love to hear from other fans! Thanks for the page address.

Years -1981-present
Best Song -what an impossible question! Well, at the moment at least, my favourite is "sighs of love", but their biggest selling single was probably "one step".
Origin -the members met at the royal college of music in london - they were nearly all students there.
Driving Force - hmm. I,m not sure what this means. What compelled them to make music? They were musicians, what else was there! their influences were widespread - jazz (jon hall's dad was a jazz drummer), classical (obviously as they were at music college), kraftwerk, robert wyatt, reggae
