JJ's Powerhouse started out as a 4 piece band named Quad  (Original members were, Jon J Cox, Ted Barlow, Chaz Wilson and Austin (Oz) Davies).  The band toured mainly around the North of England  where they acquired a large and loyal following, mainly composed of Bikers (the "B" SIDE of the single was about a local Biker Chapter called the Blackrods)  They recorded a demo under the name Quad (The Overlord, Thinking Of You, Saucers) and then In 1983 they recorded their only 'official' recording, the 7" single "Running for the Line" b/w 'Blackrods'.  The song was actually called "Heading for the Line", but due to a misprint the song became eternally known by the name Running For The Line.
