One of the many bands I grew up listening to. With 1 original member still in the band, they're more of a cover band to me now, but Walt was part of one helluva horn section.

RIP

Over this side of the water in rain swept England I remember Does Anyone Know What Time it is? and 25 to 6 to 4 being played on BBC Radio One around 1970-71 with those two singles receiving a lot of airplay at the time back then also I like the first & second albums and even the 'heavy brass' sound of the band sounds ok with me and in Terry Kath he was a very good guitarist.

RIP Walter
