John Blunt plays with Searchers for first time in 44 years

Great stuff Roy, thanks for posting this.

Yes, thanks for sharing this, Roy! I think the drummer and the band managed these two songs well. I understand that Blunt even sings and plays the guitar nowadays. But I guess it was never in question to let him join in as 3rd guitarist for When You Walk In The Room?! That would have been an extra bonus attraction in my eyes!

Another very fine and authentic sounding lead vocal from John McNally. As my friend Gary Muth said to me after seeing the boys play at CasinoRama (north of Toronto) a number of years back, "why don't they have John do more lead vocals?"

I know he does more now than ever before and that's a good thing. A few more wouldn't be a bad thing.
