Eddy Grant is missing here. He wrote all of their songs,. music and lyrics. What a master musician and composer. :face-red-heart-shape:

Went looking for "Winnebago - Cheating on your Heart" and somehow ended up here...how lucky am I? This takes me back, way back to my youth and a reminder of better days. I loved this song then and to tell you the truth it does not sound too shabby fifty years on. Thanks for the memories.

Yes L. Derv was always the lead singer.,and still is ( the old boy like me! #). I think Eddy Grant is still luxuriating in Barbados.... He was the guqv and amazing what that three chord, but great "Baby come Back" made him a fortune!
-
This sounds like a Ramones song - by which I mean it sounds kinda like a Beach Boys song. I just discovered The Equals, and I gotta say, they're brilliant.
