When I was a kid, my mom use to play a Englebert Humperdinck record when she was pissed at my dad. Kind of strange. :P When ever I see his name, I always think about that.

That's funnee, Paul. I'll have to tell my wife's cousin that story. He used to do the on tour lighting for Englebert and Tom Jones, amongst others. A side note about Englebert is that he is said to have insisted that his crew accompany him for dinner and such. I suppose that could be a double edge sword. Imagine if your dad was on the crew. :wink:

Aside from Jet (Terence) Harris, and Licorice (Brian) Locking, former Shadows members stuck with their birth names per se.
