It's such a fine line between stupid... and clever.
I always dug Mick Ronson's playing...now I have to go back and listen to some Tufnel, err, Guest, to hear the comparisons you guys are making....

Nice! They finally got around to doing something with the Saucy Jack concept, David's rock musical based on the life of Jack the Ripper. Looking forward to hearing this. Downloading now. Thanks Spud.
