It’s Over Now (It’s Alright) (Condensation Mix) and 2 more… Cause & Effect - It’s Over Now (It’s Alright) Marsh first met Steve Waddington when he joined the band Twelfth of August as an additional guitarist. Within a few months, Marsh suggested they leave and start their own band. Calling themselves The Journey Through in 1983, they recruited bass player Timothy Havard [1] and began writing and rehearsing; occasionally playing live, with keyboard player Bill Anderson. Waddington was singer and principal songwriter. By early 1984 they were The Beloved; Waddington still the frontman, but Marsh singing on several songs and Havard and Marsh beginning to take over most of the songwriting. [1] By the autumn Marsh was the lead singer, still drumming on demos and in rehearsal. He waited outside the BBC, Portland Place one night and gave a demo tape to John Peel. Within a fortnight they had been booked for a session. Marsh's school friend, Guy Gausden, had played drums with them at a couple of gigs and they persuaded him to join as a permanent member. Having barely rehearsed, and with two brand new songs out of four, they debuted as a four-piece on BBC Radio 1 on 8 January 1985.Wareing, Charlotte (16 March 2016).

Happiness is a 1990 album from the British pop band The Beloved that Martyn Phillips produced. Happiness reached #14 on the U.K. Albums Chart on its release, in March 1990, and subsequently reached #154 on the U.S. Billboard 200 Pop Albums Chart. The Boston band released their third full length album, which included the singles Velouria and Dig For Fire. The reissue has taken one of the best ever recordings and squashed/compressed it way too much which has reduced overall dynamic range. Top 100 peaks to December 2010: Ryan, Gavin (2011).

What other record are you going to play at 5.30am as the sun is rising? I remember the Wedding Present’s David Gedge, who we liked, getting a bit shirty with us, saying: “You’ve sold out.” One minute, we were touring with the Fall and doing John Peel sessions. The next we were on Top of the Pops.
