1989. This album went
gold and reached number 2 in the
UK album charts.
While regarded by some members of the British music press of the time as a teen band, Then Jerico produced two outstanding albums of creative

The song "Big Area" was featured in the 1989 science fiction film "Slipstream" starring Mark Hamill.
