Housemartins : Formed in 1984,  UK pop band The Housemartins originally comprised Paul Heaton, Stan Cullimore, Ted Key and Hugh Whitaker.  Their modesty and  plain image disguised a genuine songwriting talent, which quickly emerged with Marxist and Christian themes which reflected the beliefs of Heaton at the time. During late 1985, Key was replaced by Norman Cook and in 1986, the band achieved their first UK hit with their third release, the infectious ‘Happy Hour’, which climbed to number 3. In December 1986, their excellent a cappella version of ‘Caravan Of Love’ (originally by Isley Jasper, Isley) gave them a deserved UK number 1 hit.
