"Riotous Hues"  were a trailblazing  band
from St. Helens, more specifically Rainford, with close links to
Liverpool. With a bloodline that can be traced from Arthur Lee and the
Velvets they opened many a door for others to crash or stumble through.
Check out the
"Secret Liverpool" and  "Elegance, Charm and Deadly Danger"
compilations for a taste of what it might have been like if the A580
didn't stop at The Mersey but surged on towards Boston Massachusetts."
