Powerful performance of RT's enigmatic song:

Sneaking this next one in where nobody will see it.

I used to have a thing for Michaela Strachan like the guy in this song and I imagine I wasn't the only one...now it just seem so wrong!

Scouting for Girls: Michaela Strachan

Next one: I'm re-posting my Comfy Chair of Death competition video mainly coz I'm going to see the American singer and composer Diana Jones who is visiting one of my local pubs soon and who features on the soundtrack of this video:

Thanks xaph mate, I totally agree and once again demonstrates the amazing range of songs written by Thompson and his use of different styles of music genres.

Performed as always with passion, professionalism and total commitment and backed by a quality band who have been together for quite a few decades now.

Thank you for listening.
