QuoteLong John Stoner How is it I've never heard of this group or this guy? I'm soon to be 59 years old, living in America. Looked up some stuff, pretty good music. Lots of covers it seems. Long John, same here but did know this song Pictures of Matchstick Men which was a hit in the US in 1968 (great song): Also remember them at Live Aid in 1985.
