      You don't get Sparks if you ever think Ron would give up the stares. It's Sparks most amazing stage act & it got them noticed on TV even more than just for the music. In '74 when they hit big their act was a real shock to the UK viewers & really caused quite a stir. The UK embraced them of course, we loved their craziness. Ron's not hogging the limelight, it's all part of the Sparks show. Sparks are theatre rock & they do it so well.

      @@rsmith7912 You're right , around '74 I too was mesmerised . But to keep such an act for eternity ? Thought they were smart or clever enough to tweak the act somewhat. Would be the same if Jagger still was acting up his 70's persona. (although....that would certainly be an improvement compared to the eternal jogger act he displays for almost half a century).
