Great interviews. Just getting around to this. If Gomm's story about writing songs is true, it explains much about Nick's attitude towards the band.

Great Ian Gomm interview, lovely modest, talented man. There was some top pop songs around in those days. All no.1s!! How things have changed in forty years.
