Mainly Spaniards were a 1980s New Zealand pop group led by guitarist/singer Richard James, who released an early 45, ''That's what friends are for'', on the Flying Nun label. A follow-up was recorded but never released after James moved to Auckland to work as a schoolteacher in late 1983. He went on to perform and record in The Pterodactyls and The Letter 5. In 2008, he formed The South Tonight with John Kelcher, late of Flying Nun band Sneaky Feelings, and with other Christchurch musicians.
