Chubby & Turnpikes = Tavares

Daryl Hall - member of Temptones

the trammps......volcanos

Volcanos = Moods = Bummy & The Bums = Trammps

(From what I can remember, The name Bummy & Bums was never used, just a viable option, before deciding on Trammps instead)

Cheers

Sure did. Don Haywoode from the Velours actually lived in Leeds when the Fantastics got established in the UK and he confirmed the connection. I used to go out with his daughter Emma so I'd see him quite often........

The Poets on Red Bird.

That's right Chalky

The Poets on Red Bird were a different group to the one that recorded Wrapped Around Your Finger and the tunes on Symbol
