WHAT'S WRONG WITH A TUNE YOU CAN WHISTLE ------MISSING PERSONS
Missing Persons INFO:
were part of the DIY alternative music scene which maintained the punk ethos in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
It could be said that the real punk groups are the ones you've never hear of and you've probably not heard of us.
We lost the legal right to use our own name courtesy of Capitol Records corporate lawyers when the US company
decided to launch a (jazz funk) band with the same name. We were based in Colchester which is in Essex, England.
We tried to change the way music was distributed, organising compilations and putting groups in touch with each other.
Critics (and fans) were often confused by the fact that we never settled on a single musical style. Why should we?
Why should music fit into genres? Why should one song neatly segue into another? Because, of course, that's the way
marketing works....
Most of our releases were on cassette, distributed by ourselves .
These are now hard to find and very expensive. We intend to release a compilation CD in 2010.
One vinyl album : "What's Wrong With A Tune You Can Whistle?" (Less 001) is now sold out.
