I am sure he had another hit called ' Sahara Night '
Quite fitting that you reply 1st.
And it was 1982 when he released Words
Trademark Sunglasses.

I'll certainly agree that the 80's seem to be a lifetime away D, and now that I think of it, I suddenly feel quite old indeed :( ;D

Played by John Hurt. I met him in the early eighties when he moved home. He moved from Ascott-Under-Whychwood to Chiswick in London not long after he lost his wife through a horse riding accident. Decent guy :y
