Oh, Collins was the man back in the day. And combining his rich, velvety voice with
that guitar sound. Peerless, to this day. These modern frontmen and women really could learn some lessons from old Edwin 'Edwin Edwin' Collins-Edwin.
What about Pete Voss? He re-defined mildly surly-looking sneers TWICE in one career. We certainly wouldn't remember that other wild-child of frontmenary, Gavin Goodwin, quite so fondly if it weren't for Voss' trailblazing innovations.
