Is that the house where the housekeeper was murdered in? Still an unsolved murder I believe.BTW ... my wife and I bought his house on the Niangua River in southern Missouri and lived there a few years in the early 1980s.

I remember when it happened. I believe he was questioned.No, that was at her home near Aldrich in Polk County. This house was near Buffalo in Dallas County. I do think we had a friendly ghost though. The original house was built in 1927 and added on to in the 1970s. There was a nice upright piano on the ground floor when we moved in (and quite a bit of Steve's "stuff" in the cellar). Ruell Chappell (a later member of OMD) said that the piano would play itself on occasion and that's the reason Steve Cash moved (although a bank repo might have had more to do with that). We didn't take the piano with us when we moved though...
Lydia Bonham (the cook and housekeeper for the band) was on the cover of the "It'll Shine When It Shines" album.
