Bio:
Their debut single "Rockin' Down Woodstock Way" was issued to commemorate the 1978
Irish Scouts National Jamboree held at Woodstock in Ireland (don't laugh, Horslips
played the same jamboree a year later!!!) Who booked the entertainment for these
Scout events anyway? Mayhem and destruction followed. This single spent a week
week in the Irish charts in August 1978, peaking at #18.
Their second single from 1980 was on Top Spin, a crappy country & western label.
There was a different, northern band called Stonefree active in the mid 80s
who played mostly rock covers (Hendrix, Santana, Dylan, etc) with
Drew Hamill from Portrush (vocals/guitar, ex Axis), Jimmy Millar (vocals/guitar),
John Henry (bass) and Dave McBride (drums). The latter was later in
Uncertain Trumpet.
Notes:
Produced by Jackie Hayden of CBS. Issued to commemorate the 1978
Irish Scots National Jamboree held at Woodstock in Ireland.
