Biography

Modern Romance were a popular Latin American-influenced Salsa Pop band, active between 1980 and 1985 in the UK. The band members included David Jaymes, Michael J Mullins (lead vocalist 1982-85), 'Robbie Jaymes' (brother of David and Keyboard player), Paul Gendler (guitars), John Du Prez (trumpets and horns), Geoff Deane (vocalist 1980-82), 'Tony Gainsborough' (drums), and Andrew Kyriacou (who replaced Gainsborough).

Between 1981 and 1983 the group had a string of UK hits including 'Everybody Salsa' (No. 12), 'Ay Ay Ay Ay Moosey' (No. 10), 'Queen of the Rapping Scene / Nothing Ever Goes the Way You Plan' (No. 37), 'Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White' (No. 15), 'Best Years of Our Lives' (No. 4), 'High Life' (No. 8), 'Don't Stop That Crazy Rhythm' (No. 14), and 'Walking in the Rain' (No. 7). Two albums also entered the top 50 in 1983. Modern Romance made a total of 13 appearances on Top of the Pops (1964).

They were huge in Europe and Japan. They produced a No. 1 hit in the Far East with their single 'Walking in the Rain'. Their album 'Adventures in Clubland' (1981) hit No. 1 in Venezuala, earning them a Gold Disc.

In 2006 a 'Best Of' album was released - 'Modern Romance: The Platinum Collection' - and the group's music began to appear in download format.

Bassist, founder member, and chief songwriter David Jaymes went on to work in the management side of the business. Michael J. Mullins became a backing vocalist for Cliff Richard. Modern Romance will be remembered as the quintessential and most successful 1980s Latin American - style band in the history of British Music.
