Lambretta

The Swedish band, not the moped.

The band

Sadly now defunkt (afaik) this band were shit hot and had quite a few hits before singer Linda went off on a solo career.

Carpenters logo

The program reminded me how much I actually do love them. I grew up listening to The Carpenters and even to this day there is no one that can match Karen Carpenters vocals. She is the greatest voice that ever lived and if you don’t believe me ask yourself how many singers you can regonise after only hearing 2 notes.
