Tempest: Sound Of The Tempest
Tony Stewart, NME, 5 May 1973
JON HISEMAN is sitting in a Viennese coffeehouse on a bright Sunday morning, and talking about the four-piece rock band he formed earlier this year. In between mouthfuls of large cream cakes, which he admits he's rather partial to, he raps fast. He takes real pride in his band, Tempest.
Total word count of piece: 743
