From Washington DC, Bobby Thurston originally started singing whilst still at high school. After graduating he landed a job with the US State Department. “I’ve been there thirteen years, ever since I left school and I have to stress that without that job to fall back on, none of what I'm doing now could have been possible,” he told Blues & Soul magazine at the time. “In fact, it was through the job that I first got started. One of the guys that I worked with when I first got started had a brother who was starting a group and they wanted me to act as a sort of roadie. Gradually I progressed into doing some background work and playing percussion - that was when we started the group Spectrum LTD. We’ve been together ever since, ten years in fact.”
