A talented bunch of guys were the Flying Pickets but sadly they never got the fame they deserved.

I agree totally!!! I know I heard this song back in the day but it fell on a playlist the other day and I have been obsessed with the song and I read on the group... sadly, Brian passed away in 2012 at the age of 65. These seem like some down to earth guys I could have a few beers with.

Red Stripe aka Eric The Flame. I have a programme signed by him as Eric The Flame. He used to be a fire eater.
