And the bassist was not from Liverpool, he was from Caerphilly.
Thanks for the info Swifty, You're a star! + sorry to Nick for getting his Nationality wrong (Although I have read that Liverpool is the capital Of North Wales - This is not meant as an insult to anyone in North Wales - I'm sure this rankles!!}
