21st November 2011 Considered the premier U.K. soul band of the 80s and on to the 90s, Loose Ends was formed in 1981 with an original line-up of Carl MacIntosh, Steve Nichol and Jane Eugene.

Originally known as Loose End, the trio began recording a series of singles for Virgin Records in 1982. A year later, the group started work on their first LP with renowned Philadelphia producer Nick Martinelli cutting an entire album of original material, penned by the group members. In 1984, A LITTLE SPICE was issued in the UK and reached No. 46 on the UK album charts, spawning three charted singles, Tell Me What You Want, (Emergency) Dial 999 and Choose Me (Rescue Me). The US version of the album was issued by MCA Records in 1985 and reached the Top 5 on the R&Bcharts and No. 46 on Billboard s Top 200 Album chart.
