I found a pile of Sounds and Record Mirror, music paper's in the loft, from the late 70's and early 80's and here are a couple of the cuttings I've found so far.  _  _  |

Re: Lies/Don't Drive My Car single:
"...the first 100,000 copies will be full colour sleeves, and the next 150,000 copies will be black and white.."
Imagine those sales! Every single in the charts must have been selling in those quantities.
No wonder they were all fighting to get their own written songs released as singles - just think of the royalties!

They were going to quit touring in 1981 and make a film called Boys in Blue??
It's a foreshadowing.

"Never too old to rock n roll"
"We'll make sure they get the same amount of volume"
The guy is clearly mad as a box of frogs

No wonder Francis dislikes anything to do with those days as most of his royalty money went up his no$e. |
