What a resident Group & House band, awesome. I wonder how much still exists, as it keeps turning up on YouTube.
45cellar Posted February 23, 2007 Author Posted February 23, 2007 (edited) Chers for those Roger they were awsome. Paul Thanks Paul, pleased you enjoyed them, I found them quite by chance, couldn't believe my luck Edited February 23, 2007 by 45cellar

I also found out that it wasnt released and they sang a lot of cover versions in there appearances..... mel ps Hows it going Paul I Love "A Lovers Concerto", but "Attack" for me is one of their finest. as is "May Your Heart Be Cast Into Stone" Will we ever see their like again, awesome Girl Groups just don't cut it Nowadays. Dare I say it, Girls Aloud "C The Day" is the closest anyone has come recently.....Shame Hopefully The Dreamgirls Movie might prompt some more Soulful Artists to record, as a Girl Group.
