The Plot Thickens
Businessmen On Bicycles
A band notable for their lack of either businessmen or bicycles. I was part of the classic Mark II recording line up.
We Started Out Back In ’84
Selections from Groid LVIIII (A State Of Mind) as recorded in 1986 straight to a stereo reel to reel tape machine or at most bounced between a pair of them.
Ian & Simon of BOB have recently reconvened as Kings of Dynamic Party Sound.
Businessmen On Bicycles – Lonely Crocodile (Naked)
A rare BOB track before it was swamped in sound effects. Live to reel in 1986.

But even here the tensions can be heard which would lead to the split in 2014.
Baa
Businessmen On Bicycles – Sheep (1987)
Another demo from the same batch that begat The Sessionaires Sunny Sessions of 1990.
Some People
Businessmen On Bicycles – Beards (1987)
