I found a CD single by Daryl Braithwaite from 1991. Daryl was singer with
Australia band Sherbet in the 1970's. The lead track The Horses is a
Jones/Becker composition - anyone want it to add to their collection?

regards,

Chris

It was actually a very big hit here in Oz at the time. It was always
promoted here as his version of an RLJ song.

That's a great song, a bit cheesy I guess, but one of my favourites none
the less. Great base line, simple but powerful. The production was
fantastic too. I didn't know they were Aussies! Wasn't it a Chin and
Chapman song?

Was it a hit in America?

PS I'm off to Switzerland tomorrow, so I won't be able to reply for a
while.
