Vincent Crane bizarrely joined Dexy's Midnight Runners. I saw him with them at the Dominion in London in 85.

 Re: What are you listening to? PART 4
I feel bad for Vincent. Great musician, with the potential to be a giant with Atomic Rooster. That band went nowhere while so many mediocre bands in the same genre became famous. They must have picked up the Rick A. curse. Most bands I really get into are doomed to obscurity.

 Re: What are you listening to? PART 4
I still haven't seen It's a Wonderful Life! Shame on me! Hoping to go see the band on Sun. down in Phila., with this weeks weather making workdays into snowdays into an altered work schedule for the Mon. holiday, not certain it'll happen but fingers crossed. How cool would it to be in a bar called Kung Fu Necktie for Chinese New Year to attend this one, ha ha?!

 Re: What are you listening to? PART 4
?? They were a UK band Brian - they even hit the charts with Devils Answer and Tomorrow Night. Maybe they stayed this side of the border - I know that I used to see them quite a lot at the turn of the seventies. G

 Re: What are you listening to? PART 4
ok - no more recollections. But good news - Peter Green has started touring again (remember he fell out with Nigel Watson of Splinter Group a few years ago - he has a UK tour in March.
