The group's name is derived from the names of guitarist Tom McGuinness and drummer Hughie Flint, but most of the songs were written by guitarist Graham Lyle and bass Benny Gallagher, with keyboard man Dennis Coulson occassionally geHing into the act.- The group's style is simple, but it is never simple-minded; they _make music, not organized naise. T-here are some gor­ geous lyrical numbers, while other cuts resemble street music in their knee-slapp­ ing rhythms; nothing I know of can beat their hit single, "When l'm Dead and Gone", for sneer rythmic excitement.

Modern archaeologists divide the histor-~ of the American Indian into many cul­ tural phases, based on their relics left in the earth. What these stages are depe ds upon the individual scientist. Few are coordinated chronologically or spa­ tially. One may have occurred only in one area, another in many areas but at many different times. The stages are basically Paleo-lndian or Lithic; Archaic Woodland;_ and Mississippi. Each of the~ may have sub-stages of Early, Middle, or Late, depending upon who you are talk­ ing to.
