Nice work, Wildwoman! Shouldn't you be writing for NME or Rolling Stone or SPIN or something? Is Guitar Tricks paying you enough? :-D It's really great that you focused on dredging these guys up from near obscurity. I was a big MTH fan back in the day what with their M.C. Escher album covers and all. They eventually morphed into the British Lions (post Ian Hunter) who released a couple of albums that also went over with a thud, chart-wise, even though the material was pretty good. Kudos for the research you did to author this article, it was immensely enjoyable.
