Frank Bunny and Andy Varcoe also played with the
band, Andy replacng Geoff on keyboards and Frank
replacing Mike on Bass.
Ian 'Ebo' Ross would sing with the band for a summer
season, and then go on to sing with Tom Robinson, Terence
Trent Darby and Paul Young.
The band played
all over Cornwall, playing waltzes, quicksteps and a
20 minute version of Quos Big Fat Momma, complete
with dru, organ and guitar solo's! The played
through the hotels of Cornwall in the Summer and the
club circuit throughout the year.
Richard remembers the van in
the picture "stopping at traffic lights in Hayle and
not starting again! We were on our way to Lands End
Hotel for the Marconi dinner and dance. They sent
their coach for us. It collected us and the gear and
took us home afterwards. Mind you we didn't get any
pocket money out of that one!"
A busy
gigging schedule was difficult to manage alonside
full time jobs, and although they had great fun the
day jobs took priority and the band called it a day.
