Quireboys were  sadly buried in the post GnR tidal wave of trashy rock, much like their fellow Londoners the (also brilliant) Dogs D'amour

really good band and nice guys to boot. their Bass player is Phil Mogg's nephew

I enjoyed the Dogs as well. And as a matter of fact a TBird makes a few brief appearances in this video:

Ah, so he had the TBird in his DNA via Pete Way.

in my opinion the best Quireboys track was never released as a single, but it used to fill the dancefloor when I used to DJ  at a rock club in the early nineties

Same era. An early Thunder video
Saw them about a dozen times live.
I sort of over-ate on Thunder. Got fed up with them at a certain point.

But they were an excellent band.

Wow... not known them playing with a full orchestra (was that Michael Kamen with the baton?)... any more where that came from...?

 Another sighting of a NR in the wild. I just joined these guys about 4 months ago, 4 hour set two rehearsals :o I am having a ball with these guys. This gig was weird, huge club cut up in thirds. large nonsmoking bar and eating area up front, in the middle smoking bar pool table area, and in the back the band. we were playing a benefit for a local police officers family who was killed in the line of duty. It was very well attended maybe 1,200 people . They had the buffet in the band room so people filed in got their food (some did stay) and went back out front where they could sit and eat drink and smoke LOL there was a big glass wall between us and the smoking room literally hundreds of people watching us through the glass it was weird! Any yet again my beat up '66 I love this bass!

They have specialised places with people performing behind glass in Holland too, so I've heard... ;)

Perhaps this is what they mean by going Dutch; splitting the bill...?

The first London Quireboys album was a good one, and the fact that Jim Cregan produced couldn't *possibly" have anything to do with that Faces sound.   :o

I didn't check all 38 pages of this running thread, so I'm not sure if we got this one yet....

How could we have missed the bass player (Tony James) of this young bottle-blond talent?



And while I was looking for this, I stumbled across one of the loveliest TV announcement of a band ever, Marc, you are sorely missed, excuse the Ric for once:
