Imagination were an English three piece band, inger/keyboardist Leee John (born 23 June 1957, Hackney, London), Ashley Ingram, a guitarist/bassist (born 27 November 1960, Northampton), drummer Errol Kennedy (born 9 June 1953, Montego Bay Jamaica).

 

Formed in early 1981, the trio took a demo tape of a track called "Body Talk" to producers Jolley & Swain. It was released as a single in April 1981 under the group name Imagination, a name that the group chose as a tribute to John Lennon.

 

The track reached number 4 in the UK Singles Chart in July 1981, selling 250,000 copies in the UK and spending eighteen weeks in the Top 50. They had two more hit singles that year, "In and Out of Love" (September) and "Flashback" (November), both of which peaked at number 16, all from their debut album, also called Body Talk.

Their biggest hit, "Just an Illusion", peaked at number two in March 1982.
