    From Steve Ellis: "Roger has his opinion regards politics whereas I have none; I'll just say: "Meet the new boss same as the old boss ", to paraphrase Pete
    Townsend`s classic "We don`t get fooled again". Tadah!

    I'll always remember my father, who wasn't exactly over enamoured with the music of the time, saying
    this to me after he'd heard Love Affairs hit 'Everlasting Love.' He'd been cocking his head and had a puzzled expression
    on his face, after hearing the opening line, and he said, ''What the bloody hell are they singing?
    It sounds like, ''Arseholes are strained, deep it hurts when they glow!''
    It still creases me up, and I told the wife and all my mates this tale, and tears were running down their faces.

    Interesting, the "singing sharp" bit. I think Steve sounds absolutely spot on with that album, every track. An absolute natural instinct for soul/r&b type rock, that's what comes through. He's absolutely in the league of Rod Stewart, Steve Marriott, Chris Farlowe et al.

    I always wondered whatever happened to the other four blokes in Love Affair?? I know Rex had his own trucking company. I have mates if your British don’t laugh in Scunthorpe North Lincolnshire. Met them in San Diego summer of 1985 coming out of a strip club. Kept in touch for two years and first went to England 1987 for the entire summer. I was a teacher at the time so I had the summer off. Right next to the train station was The Bridge House Hotel Pub. On the jukebox I would play The Walker Brothers The Sun Ain’t Gonna Shine Anymore,and Manfred Mann Pretty Flamingo and of course Everlasting Love and One Road. I visited every summer until 1993 when I packed in teaching and my mates would say “ I knew Bud was back in Scunthorpe when I heard Love Affair on the jukebox. They Steve Ellis and Roger Daltrey are two of my four favorite singers from any era. Gary Puckett who at age 81 is still alive and performing and Scott Walker RIP. I always wondered whatever happened to the beautiful young woman in the Everlasting Love Video with the Bob Fosse esque hand movements. She would be in her 70 s if still alive.
