Keep on Running

Yet another one bites the dust! It seems that Spencer Davis (Swansea-born leader of the Spencer Davis Group of the mid-1960's) has died in hospital, aged 81, whilst being treated for 'pneumonia' (https://www.theguardian.com/music/2020/oct/20/spencer-davis-frontman-spencer-davis-group-dies-aged-81). My personal main recollection is that their hit 'Keep on Running' always used to be played repeatly at marathons and half-marathons in the UK jogging boom of the 1970's and 80's. It's a good pace-setter!
