FRANCIS DUNNERY OF IT BITES INTERVIEW

FRANCIS DUNNERY OF IT BITES INTERVIEW by Gareth Morlais on 16 March 1988 just before the band's gig at the Newport Centre, Newport, south Wales to promote their second LP Once Around the World. The band had had a hit with Calling all the Heroes and I'd really noticed the musicianship - particularly the guitar playing - of this band. I was a fan of Francis Dunnery and the band. The difficult second album, in It Bites's case, was a virtuoso progressive piece, produced by Steve Hillage. Francis's frustration about the popularity of fairly brainless pop pap oozes out in this interview.
