I never realised he missed the fatal Buddy Holly flight with the Big bopper and Richie Valance…even though he flipped the coin and got the fourth seat. He decided not to , leaving the above 3 and the pilot to take that fatal flight.
I suspect will only appeal to the more eclectic music lovers on this forum… but really rather enjoyable with some great hooks, styles, and off the wall lyrics.

Fab album. Great SQ. perfect for a rainy Saturday.
PG US on half speed re master, stunning follow up to SO and got to say both SO and Us on 45 vinyl as superb recordings
Yep, that and Cold Wars raised their music to a different level, it would have been interesting to see how they would have developed.
