RE: Wow... Just WOW!!!

Wayne Simmons - basketball star and entertainer (looks a bit like star Seal in fact)... Found these two gems on Youtube yesterday, any ex-36ers ever try anything as audacious as this (gee i miss the early mid-90`s when anything and everything was being flogged using bball as the hook)... Nice cover art as well!!!

I'm sure this has been linked before so won't start a new thread but found some cool Scottie Ninnis highlights - 1 he was quick and 2 he could jump.

I am guessing Wayne must have been a CBA player/cultural treasure since i couldn`t find him on NBLstats... Anyone shed light on what he was famous for in Perth/WA apart from his silky smooth voice???
Perth members and/or ex-pats???

The photo on the cover art of the cd reminds me of some of the NBA draftee photographs from the 1980`s (Chuck Person (`87? draft and ROY) springs to mind with his infamous (white) dinner suit)...

Wayne Simmons...

Slow because you can't stop watching this?

Their agent thought that "Technically a Lady" wouldn't be as popular a title.

Wow, Calvin Talford had some mad hops didn't he? You'd swear he was jumping off a mini tramp on that dunk. Also loved the young MacKinnon slam, crazy hang time, so athletic.
