Background notes
Archive material and source history
Broken English formed in London in 1989 around vocalist John Crawford and guitarist Martin Rossiter. Their debut single "Comin' On Strong" became a hit, establishing them with a sound that mixed rock, funk, and soul.
After their first album in 1991, the band's lineup shifted with bassist Dave Bronze and drummer Robin Goodridge joining. They released a second album called "Stone" in 1993, followed by two more studio records in 1996 and 2001.
Crawford's lyrics sometimes drew criticism for being outspoken, and the band faced internal tensions along the way.
