I am Tim Langford and this is factual information by the owner of Too Slim and the Taildraggers. I have updated information that was inaccurate and also added recent new information.
The one thing I deleted was the claim that Aron Burton co-wrote a song on King Size Trouble Makers - This is not true I own 100% of publishing through BMI and I have it copyrighted. His claim is false and inaccurate. Holihs (talk) 01:39, 19 April 2013 (UTC)[1]
