Saw them at the Hull Adelphi . Wife was a big fan and still has their vinyl.

How many Sun readers are gonna know who Frank and Walters were?

BTW - I saw them at least once, probably a couple of times. Their performance pretty much blew me away. I didn't buy many of their records but live, they were great.

The Irish Sun, so no doubt more people there, than here in the UK.

I mean, they are from Cork.

At least one was an Irish Navy veteran I seem to remember!

Sure, but that doesn't mean they're famous in Ireland. There are American acts famous in the UK, completely unknown in the US.

skyscraper101 made no claims to the level of their fame, merely stating that readers of The Irish Sun would likely be more familiar with The Frank And Walters than readers of The Sun.

They were once supported by a little known band called Radiohead. Pop fact.
