In 1987, they released their second album World Service (1987), which featured contributions from Simon Limbrick after Martin Ditcham's departure to tour with Sade. Notable tracks include "On the Rocks" and "Itâs Been Fun". The band worked with various dance companies and toured with London Contemporary Dance Theatre and Second Stride.
