Double A side re-release for Wrexham band of the 80s and 90s
Terminal was one of the hardest working bands around and stories of their concerts became the stuff of local legend. Making up the band were members from Wrexham and Denbigh, consisting of brothers Phil (singer) and Adi Heym (bass), Nigel Peters (lead guitar) and Dave Humphreys (drums). Songs were written by Phil and Nigel.

It was off the back of this, that he received a bit of a surprise from across the Channel, via Nantes-based Fish & Cheap Records. He said: "I was contacted by a small company in France who said they loved Terminal and wanted to re-release their music to reach a wider public. "They had managed to get hold of their second single and I sent them their first single, which we agreed that they would make a double A side, which they have done and is now available to buy from them."

It's fantastic, I could do with a Paris gig! "We never compromised with our music, always did our own songs. "I remember we were the first band to play the Hippodrome in Wrexham since the 1910s, and the queue outside was around the block." Dave said: "I'm humbled by it all to be honest. We were a bunch of mates (most of the time) that loved making music and performing. Good Times indeed."
