Along with publishing company Quirk Music, Bare was formed by Anthony Forrest and Stuart Francis, both of whom had 'extensive experience in the music and film indistries' according to 'Music Week' of the 3rd of November 1979. Its first single, 'Heaven Is In You' b/w 'Oh! What A Way Hi', by Jamie Wilde (BROO-1), came out that same month. According to Music Master its second (and apparently its last) single, Lizzee Dee's, 'Love Will Find A Way' b/w ' Gotta Real Good Feelin'' (BROO-2), was released in January of the following year, through Pinnacle, though the label has '1979' on it - it may possibly be that the record had been out for some weeks before that distribution deal was reached, or perhaps its release was delayed for some reason. Jamie Wilde was the brother of Bay City Roller Leslie McKeown, which suggests that 'Heaven Is In You' may have been aimed at the same kind of market that the Rollers tapped so successfully. If that was the case, the single's rarity would appear to indicate that it missed its target by some distance. Wilde had previously had a single out on the Polydor label, 'You're My Baby' b/w 'Without Love' (2058-902; 7/77).
