NEWS   A little piece of history is hitting the major CD retailers - 'Looking Back On The Future,' which first appeared on vinyl in 1976, is getting it's first official CD launch after becoming a collectors item and being bootlegged a couple of times. This is the only release sanctioned by us and contains comprehensive sleeve notes from us, correcting some of the myths out there from people who pretend to know about us. You'll find it on sites from Billboard.com, Tower Records, Amazon.com to VH1.com and many other major retailers both sides of the Atlantic. PLEASE NOTE: THE SUNBEAM RECORDS RELEASE IS THE ONLY LEGITIMATE VERSION OF THIS ALBUM ON CD!

Acoustic singer/songwriter duo, with a very poetic base to their writing.
Why this name?
Can't remember - it was a long time ago ;-)
Do you play live?
Only the occasional reunion gig these days as both partners are busy doing other things.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Allows us to get direct to the public.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
No. It would have to be a megadeal.
