I remember when they appeared like an explosion!
They were suddenly everywhere; their music screaming out of every open car window, MTV must have worn out their videotape!
And Eddie and David Lee were the 2 most stunning good looking men you ever saw!
Where did the time go?
When did they get old?
As David Lee sang, well over 20 years ago:
‘Where Have All The Good Times Gone?’
R.I.P.
Thank you for memories of happier times, and images of talented artists with their lives ahead of them....
