REMEMBER the teenage idol all liquid eyes, milk teeth, Cupid's bow and simply oozing with the wonder ingredient, sex appeal? Eyes right and you will observe the new face of pop '67, Traffic's Dave Mason of the sleepy face and wide awake mind who sings and wrote 'Hole In My Shoe', now No. 2 in the NME Chart.
