one became fat boy, one formed the beautiful south. what did the other two do ?

[Munkeeluvva]

Actually, two of them formed Beautiful South

Paul Heaton formed Beautiful South with Dave Hemingway, and a roadie, Sean Welch

Norman Cook was in Beats International, and is now Fatboy Slim, as you know.

Stan Cullimore writes chilredn's books & TV scripts

Hugh Whitaker was convicted of assault after attacking his former business partner James Hewitt with an axe after Hewitt had seemingly cheated him. Released from prison in '93 and occasionally drums with a Leeds band called Percy.

I have no idea what Ted Key or Chris Lang are doing, sorry.

thanks for that. many years ago (mid 80's) i was at a record fair trying to buy a record called "double dutch bus" and the guy next to me told me a i should get another version as the the one i had in my hand was mainly used for chart/airplay and not the dance/clubby version... it was fatboy himself. or norman as he was then. nice to know these celebs know their music and don't mind helping out !.got the right version .
