Scrump - do you remember their name (because originally I'm coming from Hamburg)? Do you think of The Rattles, our german "Beatles" in the 60'? Please try to remmber.

Sorry Manfed, I was jokingly referring to the Beatles themselves and their stints in Hamburg (hence the smiley :-)). I do remember the Rattles too though, and I think I have one of the records somewhere (a 45 but I can't remember the title offhand).

"pop songs based on non-classical instrumentals": Maybe thats a good idea to open a new thread. But one should have a look on what we found out so far to make a short synopsis/ summary. This could be a good basis to start this thread/topic. Would you please like to make this short summary of results/outcomes, Scrump? (because your english is much more better than my german english)

OK, a bit busy at the moment but if no-one else has done it soon I'll do it.
