Talk:Lone Star (band)

Untitled
How bizarre! Alan Fluff Freeman's death a few days ago reminded me of the awesome "she said, she said" by Lone Star and now I find a torrent and a wikipage.

Thanks Fluff. And thank you to Lone Star for the music. You should have been massive.

Log in? I haven't the faintest idea how to log in. Only wanted to say... ...having seen the note about the Lone Star entry not somehow conforming to normal formatting and needing to be Wikified/formatted with references - well as someone who was 'there' at the time in mid-seventies, the entries on the information page seem all present and correct to me. Whoever did it did a good job. And yes, the Alan Freeman show. I well remember Lone Star being played on Fluff's show - the debut album especially and the track Spaceships (side 2 track 1 on the LP). And what a man Alan Freeman was. His classical music pieces as jingles leading up to a track being played were pure genius. RIP the greatest guy on Radio 1's history for me - you'll be sadly missed. And thanks 'Tonka' for Lone Star, and for superb albums with UFO ;-)

Rad Doc
I loved those albums and will replace the vinyl with CDs soon. BTW I recall a BBC Radio 1 rock doc years ago which mentioned the short career of LS. Apparently they were off to the States and imbibed too much on the plane. Arriving at an important press conference in this state likely destroyed their chances and they had to return. I think there is probably supportive info in the first edition of the NME Book of Rock which I have somewhere. 81.86.144.210 08:49, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
