    Yoda just turned me on to a UK rock band (Thunder). Thanks. I didn't need that extra money anyway. Hang on a moment while I open Amazon in a second tab... :-D

      I was surprised to see that they were basically a child of the 90s (89 doesn't count for being an 80s band) since they have a very 70s meets 80s kinda sound.

        They certainly do. They have a sound that is a cross between Free and Magnum.

          As a singer, Paul Rogers was one of my earliest influences. So was Steve Marriot, the difference being I could actually hit the notes that Paul sang. :)

            I first saw them at Surrey Uni around 1985-86 in their previous incarnation (Terraplane[^]) and they were damn good even then. Mind you, i hadn't discovered The Wildhearts[^] or Skyclad[^] then!

                            All a bit dark for my taste. I liked Thunder because it was rock and roll from a happier time.
