I guess we will find out if "McVicar" is the B-side of "Free Me"--which is the single I remember from the film's soundtrack. Maybe it was another single. I know nobody who has seen the movie. Daltrey never made too many other movies which would imply that his acting skills were limited.

Loved hearing The Butterfly Collector while my old yellow vinyl single gathers dust.
As for The One Thing, that was def. an MTV & radio hit, and I think the video (scruffy guys crashing a posh pool party?) was my introduction to the band in that first year of music video immersion
They won me over with sound, not looks

And yeah, dreary out there. Sudden drops in pressure/temps over the past few days playing with my sinuses; gonna make some more hot tea in a bit. On a positive note: I took a shipment on Saturday from these guys: www.t-wetea.com . Truly fantastic and interesting teas of all types, including tisanes and blends with coffee beans added. I highly recommend any of their chai blends (which are always on rotation) for chai fans. One of my favorite blends has a bit of coffee bean in it - BiCurious George! They also include a handwritten note with a bit of nice snark with every order.
