    1. Glad you enjoy this RMstorm. This is the 3rd album I've posted by Chain, so if you go back through the previous posts you'll find the other two. Links are still good I believe.

    1. Yes I knew John, I met him when he first came onto the Perth scene back in 1970. Unfortunately he passed away a few years ago.
