I only brought this down from the loft last week. I recently bought their "all the best" CD and I was surprised this particular song wasn't on it. The guitar solo is orgasmic! They are still around. Fair play to them.

Funny story: I was in London maybe '74 or 75' and we intended to go to one of their concerts. But we were so tired from walking around the whole day, that when we passed another venue, where incidentally Barclay James Harvest was playing, we went there instead. Kind of regret it.

Just picked up the double CD last week....AMAZING!!

Whilst listening to the Tremeloes I remembered Brian Poole and Starry Eyed. Had the lp Though Talk on vinyl and played it a lot. Just goes to show big an influence The Byrds were on British bands. This was a good album. Loved it. Wish I could find it on CD.

They were great!

[@incongra]

haha no let me explain ; I get the impression they are still very much alive and kicking on one guise or another so I guess they are still great. You're right though, they WERE also great in the 70's. Not many British bands gor signed by CBS.

Well, of course I recommend getting the original vinyl but the unreleased cuts are only available on cd so for those who have nothing by them and for those who want more go their website and pick up the 2 cd collection. You will not regret it!

[@poptimystic]

Go to their website and spring for the two cd set. More than worth it for the bonus unreleased tracks and the 45's.

Hey incongra, do you have an email address we can use to contact you regarding your Ilyushin IL-18 Aborted take off video? I'd love to discuss a license to use it if possible! Cheers, Felix

[@incongra]

Excellent and I hope EVERYONE who is getting acquainted with this band checks out the website and buys the 2 cd collection. Is there any "offshoot" stuff going around? - I see Tony has quite a few fairly recent clips on here

[@incongra]

EEK! too late I only buy vinyl nowadays... I hope plenty of people take your advice tho. There are magic, always were a wee bit different.

[@azzaz1]

Hah, just because I've written "were" does this mean foul play?... I'm confused.
