Prayer? Hey Lord? Real Life? all cracking songs

You might be interested to know that Christian Roux is a friend of mine on FB, have a chat with him and gush about old times.

I knew you'd remember them : )

I saw them support The Wonderstuff at the Bristol Studio in March 1989 just after they'd signed to Island Records and were about to release "Prayer" as a single, still got the first album, Christian was a brilliant frontman.

I saw them around the same time, I think it was with The Cult in Manchester....the memory is hazy these days.

There is also a facebook page with loads of cool piccies and stuff. Check it out, loads of reminders of bands I had put to the back of my mind....like, Power of Dreams, cracking debut album.
