Unknown to the band at the time the name was chosen, GBH is derived from the British legal phrase, Grievous bodily harm. Another band was using the name, so they added Charged onto GBH. It began with Colin (Col) Abrahall on vocals, Colin (Jock) Blyth on guitar, Ross Lomas on bass, as well as their first drummer Andrew Williams. The band mostly toured in England during the 1980s, however they did make several excursions out of the island, including several tours to the United States. Some of their most famous shows that they played during the 1980s were at the 100 Club in Oxford Street in London.

Needle In The Haystack Lyrics

GBH

I once believed, all girls are nice,
but listen to me, take my advice.
You've gotta get yourself on the right track,
'cus finding a good girl, Boy,
is like finding .. a needle in a haystack,
.. .. a needle in a haystack.
Those girls are sly, slick and shy,
don't ever let them get ya with their starry eyes.
They tell that their love is true,
and then they walk all over you.
You should know these things it's a natural fact.
You better look before you leap,
still water sometimes turns very deep.
Feel your love is sure,
but your just their past-time lover.
Know these things off the bat.
