By this time, Howard was simply huge and the Humans Lib album had gone very big indeed (No 1 in fact). This gig was part of the Humans Lib tour and featured a rotating stage with Howard’s rig. A decent gig by any stretch and a recording of this gig went on to feature on BBC’s In Concert series a few weeks later. I can still remember vividly that full version of Human’s Lib and the story of Ruth, David and Dennis. As a bit of useless trivia, I won the ballot at Earth Records for the huge Humans Lib advert/backdrop

   

 

 

One of three local acts to go big in 1983 (Marillion and Kajagoogoo the others), Howard kept on getting bigger and bigger playing the country's biggest venues by 1985/6 and had many successful singles and albums (including the No 1 Humans Lib in 1984). Also appeared at Live Aid 1985. Howard still makes records and gigs today and in 2008 celebrated his 25th anniversary (since New Song) with a special gig at the London Indigo2
