The story

Fronted by lead singer, songwriter, guitarist, bassist, and piano player Dr. Robert (born Bruce Robert Howard, 2 May 1961, Haddington, Scotland), the group formed in 1981 upon Howard's return to the United Kingdom, after spending the years 1976-1981 in Australia.

The other members are Mick Anker on bass guitar, Neville Henry on saxophone, and Tony Kiley on drums (born February 16, 1962).

In 1984 the group released their debut album Limping for a Generation, but their first hit single came in 1986 with "Digging Your Scene," from their second album Animal Magic (which reached number 21 in the UK Albums Chart).
