Andy Bown NOT Alan Bown
yes! i stand corrected... he was a nice guy, always on the
lookout for copies of his solo lps....
forgot about the Herd connection.....
just recently, I was at a gig and was introduced to Pete Kircher, one
of their ex-drummers.
he runs an antique shop on main St. here in vancouver.
He did say he was the Quo's drummer but seemed reluctant to talk too much
about them.
as his shop is up the street from where i live, i guess i should go
have a look....

they're one of those UK bands that the labels couldn't seem to give
away here... I don't know...
i remember Capitol in the 70s gave them a good kick at the can, but
did they ever tour here?
I don't seem to think so....
They're kind of like Cliff Richard.... one of those British pop
cultural institutions that
sometimes translates over, but mostly don't.... maybe kind of like
Canada's Tragically Hip...
I don't know... why can Savoy Brown keep touring the bar circuit
forever in North America?
Why do they (no offense, a living is a living... I'm just saying this
light-heartedly).
anyway... that's the last from me on this topic... this is all your
fault, david!! hahahahaaaa......
Geez, now where'd I put my Adam Faith lps?
They were next to the Billy Fury stack.... hmmm.....
