I recently read an article about them in Classic Rock, and decided to check them out. I only had one album with Roger Chapman - Streetwalkers' Vicious But Fair - which I thought was OK. I bought a live album (BBC) and I must say that it is not good at all. It has all the hits, but I cannot get into them. Chapman's voice is a very acquired taste but I don't mind it. What I mind though are the songs: uninspired. Glad I got the CD for nothing.http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,920837,920837#msg-920837Thu, 23 May 2013 20:19:25 +1000 Phorum 5.2.16 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,920837,921211#msg-921211 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,920837,921211#msg-921211

I don't dislike Chapman's voice. I just thought that the songs were rather weak.]]> Laurent NoticeboardWed, 28 Nov 2012 17:35:24 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,920837,920874#msg-920874 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,920837,920874#msg-920874
I saw them several times in the late 60s / early 70s and loved them then. 'Music In A Doll's House' is a wonderful early progressive classic, I think - but you still have to get past that voice!!
