My Heart, Your Heart Inspired by the Beatles, the four-piece Translator featured the talents of two singer/songwriters, Steve Barton (guitar) and Bob Darlington (guitar), and a sound that spanned Merseybeat to psychedelia. Larry Dekker on bass and Dave Scheff on drums completed the lineup, which remained constant during the band's seven-year stay. Formed in Los Angeles in 1979, the band relocated to San Francisco and were swiftly signed to Howie Klein's independent label, 415 Records, on the strength of their demo version of "Everywhere That I'm Not," the song that would remain the band's signature tune. Heartbeats and Triggers (415/Columbia 1982), produced by David Kahne, was a college-radio hit. The second album, 1983's No Time Like Now didn't fare as well, and Kahne's production didn't do much to enhance the sound. The band was struggling to break away from the tight new wave formula and started to on their lush, third album from 1985, simply titled Translator. As the decade wore on, the band became increasingly interested in exploring psychedelia, and their live shows were often three-hour affairs that included lots of jamming. Their final album, Evening of the Harvest (1986), was the sound of a band that had matured and was their most realized statement. It was also the sound of a discontented band falling apart. Everywhere That I'm Not -- A Retrospective was released by Columbia in 1986. Two more CD retrospectives were released on the band, Translation on Oglio and Everywhere That We Were -- The Best of Translator by Columbia Legacy in 1995 and 1996, respectively. The band took a stab at reuniting in 1993 and 1995, but not for long. In 1996, they were paid the highest compliment when voracious Beatles fans alerted the world via Internet and fanzines that the Fab Three had re-recorded a version of the Beatles instrumental "Cry For a Shadow" during the Anthology sessions. The tape was later found to be an old Translator B-side. All members of the band continue to play music in some form; Scheff immediately joined Winter Hours for a brief spell, and Barton was working as a solo artist but has yet to release anything...al)Powered by eCRATER .
