Originally called Manfred Ludowitz from South Africa and the original singer was Paul Jones who now acts and presents the odd TV show!

Very true - I always thought it was Paul Jones that sang "The Mighty Quinn" but it was Mike D'Abo!
I'm sure Paul Jones joined them for a tour sometime in the 90's? Might be wrong though....
