* Simon Henry – Saxophon Jamie Wednesday nahm zwei EPs auf und war mit auf zwei Stücken auf einer Kompilation des Labels Pink Label vertreten, aber die Verkaufszahlen waren nie gut und die Band blieb praktisch unbekannt. Ein Artikel von im New Musical Express über Jamie Wednesday war Inspiration für den Namen der Band Pop Will Eat Itself, da in diesem Artikel angemerkt wurde, dass die Popmusik ihre Ideen stets wiederverwerte und dass schlussendlich der „Pop sich selbst auffräße“ (pop will eat itself). Jamie Wednesday löste sich 1987 direkt vor einem geplanten Auftritt, in dem die Band als Opener spielen sollte, auf. Nur und traten auf, unterstützt von einem Drumcomputer. Aus dieser Konstellation entstand Carter USM. Morrison nannte sich Jim Bob und Carter Fruitbat. Der Schlagzeuger Leggett schloss sich der Band an. (de)

* Simon Henry - Saxophone Jamie Wednesday recorded and released two EPs, and contributed to two compilations on the Pink Records label, but they never sold well and the band remained virtually unknown. Jamie Wednesday are indirectly responsible for the name of the band Pop Will Eat Itself, when an article about Jamie Wednesday in the NME, written by David Quantick, mentioned that pop music is ever-recycling its ideas and that eventually, "pop will eat itself". Jamie Wednesday split up in 1987 just before a scheduled appearance at an opening gig. James Morrison and Leslie Carter stuck together and filled in for that gig. Thus Carter USM was born, with Morrison and Carter becoming Jim Bob and Fruitbat respectively. Drummer Leggett subsequently joined BOB. (en)
