H2O released Hollywood Dream on Spock records before signing for RCA. They reached #17 with Dream to sleep had another entry into the top 50 and followed that with an album. They actually sold out The Mayfair but just could not compete with Duran Duran and Spandau Ballet.
The Dolphins had a dedicated and accepting fan following, got signed to a publishing deal, attracted record company interest but ended up as just one of a series of Glaswegian bands who had big followings but never made it outside the city. They did inspire a former HGr to put together a web site.
