Re: Band members who didn't get enough recognition.
That reminds me of the time I went to see SLF when Foxton was making his debut on bass. My mate kept shouting "freak" at him and I think Bruce was getting paranoid in case he didn't mean the song.101Walterton wrote:Look at it the other way, what did Foxton and Buckler do after The Jam you Freak.Heston wrote:Bruce Foxton and Rick Buckler.
The fact Weller got it horribly wrong after they parted company shouldn't be ignored.

Third best? How the hell do you rank something so terrible?
I feel that there is a fascistic element, for example, in the Rolling Stones . . .

Peter Criss has brought male breast cancer the recognition it deserves. Grope your moobs, fellas. Grope 'em till they're hard. The third-best solo artist in Kiss implores you to.Wolter wrote:You know who doesn't get enough recognition? Peter Criss.

Peter Criss's solo album was a bit jazzy actually, proper swing beats and all that. Also incorporated a bit soul and R&B. Kiss were musical chameleons if you scratch under the surface.
