    Out of a lot of rockstars Colin Hay has to be one of the most underrated, the guy still sounds unbelievable and seems like a delightful soul

      Saw him with Ringo a few months back and it was such a treat. I think Colin was my favorite act in the entire group. He still sounds fantastic and such a great, easygoing guy.

      Yes, a dream came true. I'm not from Scotland, not from Australia, abut I always loved the Beatles and and as Men at Wort apeared I did and do love them or what is left of them, unfortunately Greg Ham has passed and John and George....sigh. But then aain, good to see Ringo and Colin Hay together! :-)

      Phil Anderton , you just gotta love Ringo he's one of those guy's with personality to spare..I've been listening to Colin doing a lot of acoustic versions of some of M.A.W biggest hits. I was so heavy into playing and digging blues rock. I badly underestimated Colin back in the day but he's a certified badass musician in my book..

    It was an unexpected heart-lifting experience by ALL all these great musicians- jaw dropping names, all!!!
    Thankyou to Colin Hay, and the STARSTUDDED, good folks that put together an uplifting way to donate.
    Even today, we have the November memories.
