The Times

The story

Initially a UK group project led by Edward Ball with members between 1980 - 1986 including John East, Simon Smith, Bob Kelly, Ray Kent, Daniel Treacy, Paul Damian and Muff Wile. However when The Times returned in 1988, after a short absence, on Creation Records, the "group" was essentially an Edward Ball solo project.
