EBTG's debut single, a cover version of Cole Porter's " Night and Day ", was released during June 1982.

After steady sales and exposure from the Pillows & Prayers compilation album, the single was re-issued in August 1983.

Their first album was released in 1984 in the UK as Eden.

In 1984, they also released the singles " Mine " and " Native Land " in the UK.

Their first UK successful single, " Each and Every One ", had a jazzy sound, and EBTG was considered part of the jazz / popular music style known as " sophisti-pop ", that included other British acts like Swing Out Sister, Sade, Matt Bianco, and The Style Council, on whose Café Bleu album they guested.

EBTG and Sade both worked with record producer Robin Millar and engineers Ben Rogan and Mike Pela for their debut albums.
