    First band I really got into. Remember seeing Ian Hunter and Mick Ronson at Hammersmith Odean in 1979ish. Brilliant concert.
    Still have a few Ian Hunter albums on my iphone.

    Can’t believe how much this guy sounds like Plant.

    I intend to watch these. I don’t like loads of music nowadays, bands have kinda died a bit. I like the sound of these and Kaleo though.

    Great tune and now you say it you can hear a very Bowie-esque influence it.
