Re: ANDERSONS
Right, I´ll make this quick as it´s 10pm here in Lima and there´s mucho cerveza to get through. The Warriors consisted of Jon and Tony Anderson, Rod Hill, Ian Brereton, Dave Foster and Ian Wallace. Apart from You Came Along, they also made one other single but I´ve forgotten the name. After the group broke up in ´67 Jon made a solo single called The Magic Toyshop under the name Hans Christian Anderson. Rod Hill and Dave Foster joined up with another local musician Dave Wammy Walmsley and Jim Payne to form a shortlived group called Accrington Stanley and Ian Wallace went on to drum for King Crimson and Bob Dylan, amongst others. Jon certainly did NOT perform with Cream or the Small Faces.
Like Mr C, I´m not a big Yes fan as triple concept albums and hippy dippy cosmic lyrics are´nt my cup of tea. However, there´s no denying that they´re an immensely talented group. I just wish that Jon would put some of his fortune into his local football club!
Right, it´s off to the cantena now for guinea pig and chips, washed down with a few bottles of Cristal, the beer of Peru. Asta la vista!
