In the United States they had one number one hit with "The night Chicago died" PAPER LACE started in 1967 as "Music Box" the name change came about in 1970, the line-up included the two founder members Phil Wright (Lead Vocalist & Drummer) Cliff Fish (Vocalist & Bass Player) Sadly Cliff lost a 2 year battle with Cancer in 2023, after much discussion and a period of mourning their loss, the band decided to carry on with a new bass player Dale Corcoran, and together with Phil Hendriks (Vocalist & Guitar) and Dave Major (Vocalist & Keyboards) Phil Wright is still the original singer and drummer, his voice sounding remarkably much the same as it did in 1974. He and Cliff sang and played on Paper Lace's big hits in the 1970's, all other bands using the name "Paper Lace" are non-official tribute acts not affiliated with Phil or the original Band.Listen to Phil as he openly and honestly speaks with Martin and Patrick about his life in the band and what he's up to today, this is an honest interview and we hope you find interesting.https://www.original-70s-paper-lace.com#HeartTransplant#eatingdisorder#RareCondition#HealthJourney#LifeChangingDiagnosis#MentalHealth#Vulnerability#SelfCompassion#PostTraumaticGrowth#MedicalMiracle#BBCSports#Inspiration#Cardiology#Surgery#Podcast#Healthcare#HeartHealth#MedicalBreakthrough#EmotionalJourney#SupportSystem#HealthcareHeroes#PatientStories#CardiologyCare#MedicalJourney#LifeLessons#MentalWellness#HealthAwareness#InspirationalTalk#LivingWithIllness#RareDiseaseAwareness#SharingIsCaring#MedicalSupport#BBCReporter#HeartDisease#PodcastInterview#HealthTalk#Empowerment#Wellbeing#HealthPodcast#Harryhill#Aid's#HIVCheck out our website at www.whostomanddick.comCheck out our website at www.whostomanddick.com
