Fine Young Cannibals frontman Roland Lee Gift chats to Sara in Buzz about a B-Side.

Roland came to international attention after forming the Fine Young Cannibals in Birmingham with Andy Cox and David Steele of The Beat. As the frontman with FYC, he became one of the defining voices of the late 1980s, enjoying worldwide success with the smash hit singles such as 'She Drives Me Crazy' and 'Good Thing', and their album 'The Raw & the Cooked' which topped the charts in both the US and the UK.
