Hmmm.... as much a diehard Groovies as I am, I can hardly consider this a one-off "Flamin' Groovies Reunion", especially if it only includes Cyril Jordan. Not...
Dang, John! Last time I saw Nolan, Kane and Thunders was at a club on Broadway in San Francisco sometime in the late '80s. What a sh-sh-sh-show! Thunders was...
