The artists fomerly known as the Hoodoo Gurus, are hitting the east coast of
Oz as their new incarnation, The Persian Rugs.
For those that haven't seen them live yet, they basically play original
funky, rocking, 1960s psychadelic songs.
And their outfits are quite a sight also. When I saw them at Homebake in
December, they all wore matching yellow shirts (tucked into) their white
slacks.
Saw a recent picture of them and it seems as though Ghostwriter Rick is no
longer with them, having been replaced by a previous Guru bassist (whose
name escapes me).
Anyhow, enjoy the shows ;
