Burning The Ground Exclusive 1982

“Memory of Your Name” was the third single released by British New Wave group Private Lives.

“Memory of Your Name”, released on Chrysalis Records was released on 13 August 1982. The lineup on the single featured John Adams on vocals and drums, John Reed on bass, and Rick Lane on keyboards, with guest appearances by Simon Climie on guitar and Guy Baker on brass. It was produced by Tony Visconti. The band gathered a strong live following, but poor record sales led to them being dropped by the label and the band breaking up.
