the fArmER's bOys

Hiya

Just wondering whether anyone remembers (or even knows) the fARmER's bOys, a Norwich-based band from the early 1980s? They were my favourite band for a few years but they split up in 1985 and none of the band had any success after that (not that they had much before anyway).

The band members were Baz, Frog, Mark & Stan.

Cheers

Yep, that's a band from the past.

Thanks for the link, can't believe I didn't think of YouTube, there are other fans still out there!

Prompted by your post I was humming along to that on You Tube last night.  Typical tacky 80s video featuring that fat bloke who works on the market in Eastenders being washed in a river!

OMG, is that Big Ron? He died a few years ago but he was a local "celebrity". I've never seen the video, even though it was filmed only a few miles from here. He must have been the cheapest local actor.
