Their successful period lasted until 1982. In 1986 Warren would go on to issue a solo LP entitled Burning Questions in. Some of the singles during this era were released as 'The Korgis' and co-produced by Andy Davis.
The band reunited in 1990 to re-record "Everybody's Got to Learn Sometime". The re-formed group, consisting of James Warren, Andy Davis and John Baker, released the album This World's For Everyone in 1992, having some success in Continental Europe and Japan, before breaking up again.
In 2005 Warren, Davis and Baker reunited again for a film shoot for DVD/compilation album Kollection and recorded the fourteen-track album Unplugged, which was released on the Angel Air record label the following year. The group split yet again in 2007.
Their biggest hit was everybody's got to learn sometime, which later was covered from artists like beck, zucchero, erasure, army of lovers, Baby D (who used the title I Need Your Loving) and Krezip. There's also a translated version by Daniël Lohues in a Dutch dialect (Drents).
The band is still active, forming a new lineup in 2017 consisting of previous members James Warren and John Baker, alongside Al Steele (guitar / producing), Paul Smith (drums), Nigel Hart (piano / arranging); and Jay Marshall, Ava Volante and Emmy Rivers (all backing vocalists).

I was in a synth pop band in early 80’s in Kent Ohio. We loved the Korgis. We did a good cover of Dumb Waiters.
@Braveheart-1314
Absolutely fantastic song. The Korgis were at their best with this ballad. It's so haunting and mesmerising. Great to see it uploaded in HD. The other big hit "I f I had you" was just as good as this. Many thanks for uploading.

I was haunted by it when it was out. Now, it just brings back so many moods and memories. I don't know if those times were better, but they are definitely gone.
