I think we've been down this road before, but if I recall correctly,
one was the Magic Lantern, one the Magic Lanterns. I heard Albert
Hammond on WKBW radio discussing it, oh, 150 or so years ago. He WAS
the group for "One Night Stand," and capitalized on the previous
similiarly named band's hit. I believe that other than that, there
was no connection.
