Joy O

Presumably, Roy Orbison's family could stand no more of this London laddie coasting along on the back of Roy's fame and demanded that he change his name.
I can hear them all now, "This is just too much, too much, too much, too much, too much, too much..."

Purient

I just wanted to post this because the idea of Power Electronic makes me happy
