February 1992 saw the demise of one of the more popular progressive bands around, Casual Affair. Their history can be tracks all the way back to March 1984 when vocalist mark Colton (ex- Fair Exchange, Goliath and Famous Last Words) met guitarist Mike Mishra after placing an ad in a local record shop. They started writing together and the first two songs were “The Game” and “Auf Wiedersehen”. In June 1984 Mark Eckersley (ex-Red, Goliath) joined on drums and Neil Mathars (ex-Kudos) came in on bass.
