Lost and Found Video - Birdland

This week's Lost and Found Video is from Birdland, a Birmingham, UK outfit formed in 1989 by bleach blonde brothers Lee (guitar) and Robert (vocals) Vincent, who had previously been part of Zodiac Motel.

From Birdland's 1991 self titled album, this is Shoot You Down.

This video was submitted by CAB reader Paul (Thanks!), who recalls that Rodney on the Roq was ...by far their biggest (and probably ONLY) supporter in the states (although they were a smash in Japan!). He really bent over backwards to the point of "almost losing his job" (right... ) and even arranged their one and only U. S. appearance at the Roxy, where he opened the set!

Post-Birdland, Robert Vincent formed a band called Torn Bloody Poetry (not sure what the status of this band is) and is said to have been in some other bands. Lee Vincent is now a member of Psychic Drive.
