Max pleased with new album - 20th August 2010
Being the band leader and principal songwriter, Max Wilson has quite a lot of work to do and much responsibility for the bands success. So this year, after line up changes, he and the ever loyal Lyndon have been pleased to be working with talented and reliable new band members, Tom and Hannah.
“Its very pleasant working with our team, which has mutual respect for each others contributions” , says Max.
“Now we’ve got that second album out of the way, I think we can take our time and produce some great music in the future, now that we all know where we are going”.
Early indications are that “A Good Place” is suprising people with its quality, its huge tunes and in yer face beats. “We have a lot to prove” says Max, ” a lot of people are dismissive of bands they haven’t had hyped at them by recording company publicists and there are so many bands out there that talk the talk but cant walk the walk and finally, older musicians like Lyndon and I are often assumed to be incapable of doing anything good”.

She’s a model and a singer,
Got the good things life can bring her,
Became so famous, had many lovers,
But she, wanted it all,
Had to have more,
Had to stand tall,
When would she fall?
Ooh La La La, Ooh La La La,
Ooh La La La, Ooh La La La.
All the small men have ambition,
When he made it, there was frission;
Wife don`t like it, in the limelight,
She, said “set me free”,
“I don’t want to be,
Where they can see,
All about me me”…..
To divorcees’s , there`s temptation,
Grab the headlines of the nation.
Record sales and big sensation,
He, said “marry me” ,
“Now let us see,
How big we will be
What a trophy”….
Ooh La La La
