Das Kabinette

Whilst students at Blackpool Art College in 1981, Dave, Craig & myself (Mick), quickly discovered our shared interest in music and old English pubs. Our second visit to the Sunset Sound Studio in 1983 produced The Cabinet. We each have a fascination for ‘The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari’ with its twisted tale of madness and unforgettable imagery and this was the theme we borrowed for our demo. We pressed 500 vinyl singles, touted The Cabinet to club & radio DJs and sent copies to largely unreceptive A&R departments, yet found a friend in BBC Radio 1’s Janice Long who aired it on several occasions. Over the intervening years, its popularity has mysteriously migrated around Europe in a way that none of us could have suspected.
