The Circle - Pop Group from West Belfast!

[kevthered123]

Terry Sharpe was lead singer of the Adventures band in the 80s, great local band. Terry still plays around the clubs in Belfast with various bands, seen him performing in Kellys Cellars few weeks ago, great voice still. They had a big uk hit in 1988 with broken land...see the attached top of the pops video. One of the L'estrange brothers from Clowney Street  was also in the band, think he was a drummer   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nV7pPhUkCy8

The drummer formthismband was the late Billy Garland, he was a first cousin of mine and I agree they were a fantastic band, I believe the two girl singers were sisters.
