We supported them in the mid 80's when they played Portsmouth!

Still got some photos from that gig!

I came across this site while surfing, I did not realise there was this much activity surrounding the group. I was the Lead singer and songwriter for "Talisman" there are two official Lps released by the band...Takin the Strain and Jam Rock. I went Solo after Talisman and have been working eversince. I have my own label called Wild Cherry Records. I am about to launch my website of which there is a dedicated Talisman section. The site is not yet fully loaded, but check it out and put it in your favourites, eventually all you ever wanted to know about Talisman will be there.
Blessed Love
