The snotty singer was my father - then known as WT Cleghorn (or Tommy Cleghorn), and latterly as Thomas Hemmingway (sadly passed away in 2003). The licks may sound reminiscent of Pagey because they are a young Pagey (19 I believe my father said he was, they were childhood friends).<br /><br />The bassist could have been a guy called Pat Donaldson - the name lingers in my head although that may have been with a different group.<br /><br />Really bizarre finding your post while googling the record, fantastic that there are still people listening to it!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14166244409618522753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993499717184568859.post-16655241148853588122009-01-27T05:23:00.000-05:002009-01-27T05:23:00.000-05:00Awesome delving.
