Nottingham, UK - fingers flynn1 year ago
strangely strange but oddly normal
as the youngsters say "omg"
i had a "sampler" album around 1970 called "nice enough to eat" which featured this lovely track which reminded me so much of my favourite band (at the time) the string band - and i knew nothing else about its perpetrators
as time went on i forgot the name of the song and the band (although they are nearly the same!) - but i could still sing the first verse from memory (all lyrics and tune intact)
marvellous to hear it again (after 40 years ! - god, where did they go?)
all the very best to you- Dr. Strangely Strange1 year ago
We have been unconscionably inactive on the myspace and resolve to try and do a bit of updating in the foreseeable future ; I(van) just logged in , delighted by your kind comments and very much enjoyed listening to some of your tracks. The Good Drs.will hopefully appear in london around Hallowe'en to relaunch "Heavy Petting" digitally remastered with bonus tracks and stuff on the Hux label .....
