From my introduction.
I must mention t...Hi Henri,<br /><br />From my introduction.<br /><br />I must mention that these drummers with their bands are recording artistes and they all would have cut a single or an EP vinyl. If you have been reading this blog, they would have been mentioned using the same pictures.<br /><br />To be fair to you and also to me: The quiz has a few factors you may not have noticed. They were featured based on the fact that they were:<br /><br />1) Singapore recording artistes - all drummers have cut vinyl, most sold well.<br />2) have their pictures on record covers (pix were taken mostly from covers).<br /><br />You didn't have <br />1) a recording on any label<br />2) a pix on any cover<br /><br />I didn't "forget to mention." I remember. Only that you were not in the particular category.<br /><br />Hope you understand.ANDY: Pop Music Not Pills. ©https://www.blogger.com/profile/10946638825812052608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3574244939174327228.post-82318764431673081022017-07-01T02:57:10.996+08:002017-07-01T02:57:10.996+08:00Good Morning Andy
