Wow Colin you are old... hahaha! I had no idea that Senor Hollis was in
the Reaction previous to Talk Talk... I knew he has always been a bit of
a Mod and was a Scooter driver for the longest time but I had no clue
about this. I actually bought some old synths from those boys many
moons ago when they had a studio down the road but I wish I'd known that
little fact at the time. Have you by chance heard his last solo
album...? He's gone all Jazz-art... I do like the record because I love
his voice but man it never fails to put me to sleep. It has to be the
sparsest and quietest record ever committed to vinyl... even the static
pops have a noise filter on 'em... sounds like they ran the whole thing
through the Sonic Solutions program.

I do have an opinion on everything for sure... but this time I'll just
say a polite NO THANK YOU/NO COMMENT to any revival topic except for
some of the SQUIRE stuff like Walkin' Down The Kings Road... which is a
classic in my books!
Time For Action by The Secret Affair makes me laugh though... "Standin'
in the shadows, where the in crowd meets..." ha ha!
