Earthquake, Volcano, Pulsar, Sitar. All parts of the equation. Strange cigars in the sky. Speeds of light, speeds of sound, we all get signs; few of us make sense of them. It's the punctuation that counts; the lightning and the thunderbolt, and in the meantime Roundabout. Scrambled messages, crossword clues, morse, enigma and millennium machines. We all get signs. Sounds in the sky. Count the seconds between the flash and the thunderbolt -that's how far out they are. Do the maths. Speeds we can only guess at - light, sound; what's the speed of speed? Lightning striking the same people over and over again. This is Roundabout. It's nice to be here. It's nice to be nice......
- Nathan E James
What they say about Roundabout:-
Its Nice To Be Nice :
A beautifully crafted & produced album. Whimsical melodies to the fore, with some great R & B tunes as contrast.
(21st century saints fanzine)
Maximum Power Pop:
A nod to the halcyon days of early Who club bands
(Swindon Evening Advertiser)

We're so proud of our new video on MySpace, we just have to tell everyone! Remember Deep Purple's Hush? It's a great song and I dare say that we managed to revive it and sex it up a little. Less rock but more groove and pumping like hell!
We're even prouder of the Hammond solo at the end, our Dr.Robert blew everyone's brains that night, just couldn't stop taking it higher and higher. Enough talk. See for yourself if it's really all that good ;)
Ta ta for now!
The Revolvers
ps. keep rocking!! when are you coming to rock Holland, I'll be there!!!
