    Saw GIRL when they were support to Pat Travers back in '82 [ish] and Phil Lewis split his trousers and they had to use gaffer tape to keep his "crown jewels" from hangin' out!!
    My Number, clear vinyl, double A side. I have here with Sheer Greed and others.
    Good band for a short time.

    Kinda different--I'd like to hear the studio version of this. At least they're really playing.

    I knew about Phil Collen, but I didn't know about Phil Lewis. Kind of an important band, then, too.

    And of course, the business with the split pants is why they invented SPANDEX!! :mrgreen: (Fits as close as possible and you never have to worry about it splitting--and it's less restrictive.)

    BTW, Odin, you dudes put me to shame that you could get something going so early. (I guess I just didn't grow up in the right neighborhood.) Keep going, and keep learning, and keep getting better--you've got a good deal of potential.

    Girl is ok. I'm not the biggest fan but it is something I don't mind listening to. This is interesting I don't think I knew about either Phil!

    This is one that I had remembered before but forgot about recently. It must be the holiday time having me a flutter or something.

    They didn't last too long but they made at least two albums for sure, could be three. I have some great old footage of them doin' some 'live' stuff on a British show, 'The Old Grey Whistle Test' with tracks like 'Strawberries' etc. Not watched it for years although I did transfer it to dvd at some stage.

    Girl released Sheer Greed, Wasted Youth, & killing Time.

    Killing Time was only released in Japan after they broke up.
