Considering Dexys' high turn-over of band members
and the quality of musicians involved it is hardly surprising that many ex-Midnight Runners went on to be in
other bands. This page features a small selection of songs performed by people who have been a part of
the Dexys story together with links to pages about those artists. The selection of groups and songs is updated regularly so
please call back soon to sample more Dexys-related rarities.
"IS THAT WHAT SHE SAID" MP3
Demo recorded circa 1978.
The Killjoys
Kevin Rowland's late-Seventies band which shortly
before its demise also featured future Dexys guitarist Kevin Archer.
Unreleased track from the album, "Apples And Oranges",
1988.
The Blue Ox Babes
Kevin Archer's post-Dexys band whose recordings featured
many ex-Midnight Runners such as Steve Shaw and Steve Wynne alongside others including Yasmin Saleh, Ian Pettitt,
Nick Smith and Pete Wain.
Mid 80's duo. Although neither Archie Brown or Dave Cairns were ever
in Dexys, they are both very much part of the 'extended family' by virtue of having performed alongside former and
future Dexys members during their respective stints with The Bureau and Secret Affair.
