Who is your favourite new band/artist that we should be checking out and what do you like about them?
New to me are The Cowsills. I'd never heard of them before, even though they were the band that inspired the TV series The Partridge Family. They had hits in the 60's with bubble-gum pop. It was a teen band with their mom in the band and baby sister Susan who was 8 when she joined.
I saw a video of an outdoor gig from 1968. Both Andy and I are very keen harmony singers [we dub ourselves the B.V. Kings]. man the Cowsills can really sing! amazing voices all of them. 6 sons one daughter, actually only 4 of those sons in the '68 line-up, but they all had a stint. I'm in the process of devouring their entire catalogue. In 1971 they released a psychedelic masterpiece 'On my side'. So if you're not familiar, check them out as they are a very important piece of the pop tapestry.
