Maximum Effect

[edit]

Towards the end of his life, his backing band were called the Maximum Effect. Anyone know who was in that band ? --Beardo (talk) 04:27, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes: Maximum Effect grew out of the ashes of Inner City Unit. They were Dead Fred and Steve Pond + drum machine. Mary Cason also performed on stage with them at some gigs, although they might have, by this time, been going by the name of Krankschaft. Krankschaft continue to gig and release albums to this day: Steve Pond plays alongside Kevin Walker and Alex Tsentides (ex The Enid). Maximum Effect released a single in 1986 titled "Espana". The line-up was Steve, Fred and Mick Stupp.86.30.97.53 (talk) 09:17, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Cheers - thanks. I saw them play in a pub near the Oval, shortly after Bob's death. -- Beardo (talk) 04:11, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
