Gibraltarian artist Albert Hammond was probably known best for his early 70s hits “It Never Rains In Southern California” and ‘Free Electric Band’ - but he went on to write countless hits for other artists such as Madonna and Leo Sayer. His son, Albert Hammond Jr, is a guitarist in The Strokes.

There's a German version of the Free Electric Band in the listener Charts of www.radio-aena.de - It went in straight to No 2! Fantastic music is just timeless.
