In their spare time, two members of Blowzabella, Paul James (b. 4 April 1957, Southampton, Hampshire, England; bagpipes/saxophone) and Nigel Eaton (b. 3 January 1966, Lyndhurst, Hampshire, England; hurdy gurdy), applied electronics and mixers to French dance tunes, and produced a club hit with ‘Raining (My Eyes Are Filled With Clouds)’, which featured a vocal by ex-Monsoon singer Sheila Chandra. A solitary album was released by Cooking Vinyl Records before the two protagonists returned to Blowzabella.
