Background notes
Archive material and source history
The Crocketts formed in London in 1982 around vocalist Paul Young, with bassist Tony Swain, drummer Steve Grantley, and keyboardist Dave West. Their debut album didn't find much commercial ground, but they kept writing and released a second album in 1984 that included '1939 Returning.' That song became their calling card, a nostalgic ballad that connected with listeners in a way their earlier work hadn't.
Beyond '1939 Returning,' their catalog includes songs like '21st Birthday Party,' 'Blue Dog,' and 'Flower Girl.' The band stopped working together in 1992, with members moving on to other projects. Their music, particularly that one defining track, still gets played.
