     Band members were: Mike Ansell on bass, Matthew Flowers (formerly of new wave band "Sore Throat") on keyboards, Pete Lancaster on trumpet, Andy O (Overall) on vocals, Tim Parry on guitar and Mickey Sparrow on drums. Steve Pond from Inner City Unit played occasional synthesizer. Parry later went on to become a record producer.
     Blue Zoo had one UK hit single. In October 1982 "Cry Boy Cry" charted and reached number 13.[1] It stayed on the UK Singles Chart's Top 40 for eight weeks.
     They released an album Two By Two (sometimes written as 2x2 or 2By2) in 1983.

  1. I have a 7"single by Blue Zoo, the hit from 1982 "cry boy cry" with B-side "off to market dub".

    Really thank you for the uploads! it ain't easy to catch up with all records re-released as CD when ordering some of them just gives reply "sorry but CD's are out of print/remaking".

    so, thanks a lot who ever you are.
