Fun Boy Three: The Message

Mark Cooper, Record Mirror, 8 January 1983

TERRY HALL reckons the Funboy Three have grown up into a real group. The proof is threefold. First, the release of one of this year's most searing singles, 'The More I See (The Less I Believe'), a passionate indictment of the cruel follies of Northern Ireland. Second, the second FB3 album, produced by Talking Heads' leader David Byrne and released at the end of January. Third, the Funboys' debut British tour featuring 14 dates and a backing band of at least six musicians.
