No I think I just was too far in advance; the time was right two years later. It was always so for me; sometimes many years later the time is right. |

I produced them knowing full well that one REAL hit and they would sell millions on the back of being young and attractive to teenage girls (I always thought they were rather plain young men; Tam was a potato farmer and had very little knowledge of male beauty).

I refused. I was, as usual, way ahead of the rest. It took two further years before they broke in the way I thought they would.
When you worked with them they didn't have Les or Woody or were probably were the most attractive to teenage girls |

The Rollers were very much a product designed to make young teen girls fall in love with a group of young men in their late teens and early twenties, who would of course be prosecuted if they reciprocated the desires of their fans. |

I was always worried by his clear wisdom teeth problems which appear to have gotten worse with age. |
