Dean's first album was first released in 1981. "The Sound Of Bacharach and David" was a collection of covers written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David and was only released promotionally to radio stations for them to use the songs to pad out their programming with songs they didn't have to pay so much for in royalties. A very rare album, it was re-released commercially for the first time in 2014. Dean also released a promotional double A side single for the area of Medway (Medway You're The One / Medway That's Where I Wanna Be) in 1982. This was re-discovered and put onto YouTube in 2017.
