The Bridewell Taxis - Chris Walton

Chris Walton in conversation with David Eastaugh Their first EP, Just Good Friends, was released on their own Stolen Records label in autumn, 1989. It reached number 18 on the UK Indie Chart. Their second single was "Give In" c/w "Whole Damn Nation" which featured a dance remix of the latter track. The band started headlining their own gigs and became regulars at venues such as the Warehouse in Leeds, The Boardwalk in Manchester and The Leadmill in Sheffield. Their debut LP "Invisible To You" was a collection of previous Stolen Records releases with two new tracks. It was launched at a home town concert at Leeds Town Hall on 5 July which was also filmed for a video release. Despite its relative lack of new material, "Invisible" sold well and remained in the indie charts for six weeks.
