    A pretty good result for Mr Jones so far He's certainly gone down better with the crowd than my Third World selection from a few weeks ago which appears to have frightened members off even listening to it...

    Wow, this brought back some memories. I went to Camberwell School of Art in the early 80's and ran the Students Union Bar for extra money. in 1982 we had Howard and his band booked for the last Friday of every month for a whole year. I seem to remember we payed them £150 which included his mime artist, the PA and lighting!!

    He was a very good live act and the union was usually at capacity when he played.

    9/10 from me, partly because of the great memories!

    Since I don't subscribe to Spotify (and don't want to), unless some YouTube links are provided I cannot engage in these discussions.

    Something to consider in the future then. Sorry Barry I didn't think to put up a YT link in my own listing. I will endeavour to find one if available...

    Wow, this takes me back, bringing memories of a different era, different lifestyle and different relationships. As a throw-back, it works wonders. As music, it engages me a lot less, I'm afraid. Some good memorable tunes, so I'll give it 6/10.
