Fond memories of the band; 2 in particular, - their gig at Southport's Bothy Club in September 1983 - we must've paid them all of £100?! Secondly their spot at Liverpool Folk Festival, again around the same time. A Saturday morning opening spot in the Adelphi Hotel's ornate ballroom when they kicked off with a memorable cover of The Police's 'Spirits In The Material World' - inspired; It woke up a bleary, coffee-sipping four dozen-or-so 'crowd' and it's stayed with me all these decades. Those were the days.
