Pete was distracted and angry by the destruction of the skilled labour force, and the bringing in of “scabs”, he told t5m. At the time he was managing the band Back to Front who were incredibly musical, but they were struggling to get a record deal. The band eventually broke up and he began feeling guilty that he didnt have any musical training.

He realised that he wanted to go back to his R&B roots and he began a  partnership with Phil Ryan. He also branched out into cinema which was a bad time too… because there was no British film industry!
