Anyone listen to it?

Discovered it recently when trying a radio app Simple Radio that I finally got round to trying on my mobile and the sound quality caught my ear. Tried listening from the website but thought the app sounded better. Been listening today and discovered Harry Manx and Tom Rigney, amongst others.

Couldn't find "A Single Spark" on YouTube, which is what was played, of decent quality, so here's something else:

"Can I have a flake in that and some monkey's blood please - mista."

Many thanks. I'm not overly keen on the Harry Manx track, but Tom Rigney's playing reminds me a bit of Nick Pickett, when he was with John Dummer's band.

They came out of the same part of America and at about the same time as Springsteen. There's a Steve Van Zandt (from the E Street Band) tie-in somewhere too if memory serves.
