In February 1970, David Bowie required a more permanent band to back him for the promotion of his latest album, 'David Bowie.' John Cambridge was retained from the 'Space Oddity' recording session and Tony Visconti volunteered for Bass duty. Cambridge recommended his friend Mick Ronson as guitarist.
On February 5, 1970, on John Peel's The Sunday Show on BBC Radio 2 'Hype' make their first radio appearance, performing after a short Bowie solo spot, an embryonic 'Width of a Circle', followed by 'Janine', 'Wild eyed boy from Freecloud' 'Unwashed & Somewhat Slightly Dazed', 'Fill Your Heart', 'I'm Waiting for the Man' 'The Prettiest Star', 'Cygnet Committee' and 'Memory of a Free Festival.'
