Remember them playing on Top of the Pops on TV a few times, once with Priest dressed as Hitler c/w moustache. Also remember the opening of Ballroom Blitz started with 'Are you ready Steve'.
Never really my cup of tea but I guess they were the instigators of what became known as 'Glam Rock'.
RIP Steve Priest.

I picked up the band only a few years ago, when i saw some live footage of them playing some heavy stuff.
Nowadays i play tracks of them on a regular base in my radio shows.
