Human League began in the late 1970s as the brainchild of two
computer operators, Ian Craig Marsh and Martyn Ware, from Sheffield,
England. They tried a number of names including the Dead Daughters
and the Future until settling upon the Human League after former
hospital porter, Philip Oakey, joined the group. Adrian Wright
joined shortly thereafter to prepare slide shows for projection
during the group's live performances. The first single, Being
Boiled, was released in 1978, but the group did not make the charts
in the UK until the release of Holiday 80 in the spring of 1980. As
a result the Human League's second album Travelogue made the UK Top
20.
By 1980 the Human League began to feel strain between the pop music
favored by Philip Oakey and Adrian Wright and the more austere
electronic sounds favored by Ian Craig Marsh and Martyn Ware. In
October 1980 the group split in half. Ware and Marsh left to begin a
project called the British Electric Foundation whose first spinoff
was the group Heaven 17 and their hit (We Don't Need This) Fascist
Groove Thang. Of the remaining Human League pair, only Philip Oakey
was a performer. With determination to complete a European tour,
Adrian Wright began learning to play synthesizer and two female
singers, Susan Ann Sulley and Joanne Catherall, were recruited from
among the dancers at Sheffield's Crazy Daisy disco. Bassist Ian
Burden was also added as a temporary group member.
Early in 1981 the new Human League hooked up with producer Martin
Rushent in what would be a very fortuitous endeavor for each. By
July the League had broken into the UK top 5 with the single Love
Action (I Believe in Love). Ian Burden became a permanent member and
synthesizer player Jo Callis was recruited from the group the
Rezillos. This lineup completed the Human League's third album, its
breakthrough and masterpiece Dare by the fall of 1981. The new
single from the album was Don't You Want Me?. It quickly reached #1
in the UK and became a pop and dance smash in the U.S. in early
1982. The Human League's all-synthesizer sound revolutionized 1980s
pop music.
By the mid-1980's "synthpop" was difficult to avoid. Late in 1982
the group and Martin Rushent released a primarily instrumental album
containing remixes of many of the songs on Dare. Along with Soft
Cell's Non Stop Ecstatic Dancing it was one of the first albums of
material remixed specifically for dance clubs. The artist name used
for the album, League Unlimited Orchestra, was a play on Barry
White's Love Unlimited Orchestra, widely credited for recording the
first disco songs.
The Human League had a difficult time putting together an album to
follow Dare. Their singles success continued with the catchy Mirror
Man and (Keep Feeling) Fascination in 1983. Finally Hysteria
appeared in May of 1984. The album was a success worldwide, but the
League began to lose their following in the U.S. The Lebanon was the
leadoff single.
Crash Another long period with no new Human League material ensued
in the mid-1980s. Philip Oakey worked with master producer Giorgio
Moroder, singing on the soundtrack to the computer love story film
Electric Dreams. As the Human League returned to the studio,
recording became a long, drawn-out affair with multiple studios and
multiple producers. The new album Crash was finally completed with
R&B star producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. Released in the fall
of 1986, Crash featured an elegant pop sound. The lead single Human
was a massive worldwide success. It was their biggest hit since
Don't You Want Me? and brought the Human League their second #1 hit
in America.
Unfortunately, the new success was short-lived. It took the Human
League another four years to release their 6th full length album in
13 years. Romantic?, released in 1990, sounded dated. The synthpop
revolution had passed. The League began to fade into obscurity. In
1995 another new album Octopus was released. The League's music
showed some renewed energy but commercial success did not return.
Amid rumours of new recordings, the Human League hit the road on
tour with ABC and Culture Club in late 1998.
