Bik , I just found this. I have to admit , I can't remember if I heard about it , or not.

I know John's Children did'nt play lame renditions of Motown's softest moments , but , that does'nt mean they were'nt a unique outfit , even if the public may have felt they were being put on a bit. That's Pop Art , man. I did'nt know Townson replaced Moon on the road , but , of course , the band's connection to The Who speaks for itself. I'm sure Moon , Townson and Ronnie Bond are making one helluva drunken racket , right now.

That's sad...some are going like flies:(
