Screen 3 were a British post-punk/new wave band from Norwich, active from 1980–1984 and again from 1990–1992. ==History== Heavily influenced by The Cure's first album, the original Screen 3 lineup formed in 1980, consisting of Neil Dyer (guitar and vocals), Richard Kett (bass) and Brett Cooper (drums). Trumpet players Peter Jay and Jason Votier were added in late 1981. Screen 3's first recorded appearance was on a Norwich compilation called ''Norwich - A Fine City'', which featured two of the band's tracks, "Live and Learn" and "Shades of Black". This was followed by an independently released 7" single, "New Blood", which garnered interest from Epic, who signed Screen 3. The "Hearts in Limbo" single was recorded at Rockfield Studios in Wales, and produced by Roger Lomas, who produced Bad Manners and some of the Selecter's 2 Tone releases. The next single, "Come Into My Jungle", came closest to success, garnering significant radio play but meagre sales. It was produced by Steve Brown, who also produced the first Wham! album and the second Cult album. Their last single on Epic was the less successful "City of Souls", also released as a 12" EP. Screen 3 recorded two John Peel〔http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/johnpeel/artists/s/screen3〕 sessions in 1983, and one in 1982 for fellow Radio 1 DJ Kid Jensen. They supported various bigger acts during their original career, either on tours or one-off concerts, including Elvis Costello, Split Enz, Madness, The Teardrop Explodes, Aztec Camera and Men at Work. After Epic dropped the band, Screen 3 used their remaining cash to self-release a compilation 12" EP in spring 1984, featuring Screen 3's "The Visitor" backed by tracks by two other local Norwich bands. The band split up soon after. Trumpet player Votier later played with the Stranglers for a couple of years, appearing on their live album ''All Live and All of the Night''. Guest musician Steve Osborne, who played trombone on Screen 3's later live gigs, became an acclaimed record producer. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Screen 3」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
