Halo James is an English band formed in London in 1988 and originally composed of Christian James, Ray St John and Neil Palmer.
A band that released a first Single "Wanted" a year later in 1989, a title with a nice critical success that will especially allow the band to start to make himself known.
But it is especially a year later in 1990 that everything will accelerate with the release of the album "Witness", an album from which their flagship Single "Could have told you so" will be extracted. A title that will work particularly well throughout the Old Continent and offer them a direct ticket to posterity.
A very short-lived success unfortunately because other Singles will be released in the wake but they will only have a limited level of success.
A poor performance from which the group would not recover and which would end up breaking up the following year in 1991.

Tracks :
1989...first title and first success right away, that's what you call a pretty ideal start. Now it remains to be confirmed...
1989...and that's to confirm, they're going to confirm ! They're going to offer themselves a nice global success here and enter One Shot into the musical Pantheon of the 80s, no less. HU-GE !
1990...a quality sequel that won't be able to compete with the previous huge steamroller but the essential is done as they say...
1990...a year 1990 which still saw them classify all their titles across the Channel which is already an achievement in itself...
1990...unfortunately the adventure will quickly end and all the titles that follow will not even be officially released...
1990...it's really hard to understand how the band's career could have been so short when they had everything they needed to do great things...
1990...unfortunately this will not be the case. A shooting star group that will pass at the speed of light in the musical landscape of this end of the 20th century...
1990...it would have been a shame not to highlight all their titles produced because there was really quality in all that...
1990...they had time to produce only one album but it's still better than nothing as they say. In any case, we'll have to make do with it...
1990...yet they had even started to produce several tracks that were to appear on their 2nd album but this would never see the light of day...
1990...even if it never existed we still have the chance to have the titles that were supposed to be there, it's always better than nothing...
1990...there was material, there was talent, everything was there for great things to happen in terms of career and success...
1990...it should have been but it won't happen in the end. They will have missed their story in a surprising way to say the least...
1990...but it is also the harsh law of this profession and when the winds are contrary it is difficult to fight in these conditions...
