Hi i am


Create Your Glitter Text

i have been a drummer on and off for 41 years, I was born 1948 and caught POLIO in 1949, hence I now use a wheelchair****bands played with over that period***The Pressure Points --- The Toreadors --- The Pastal Shades --- Korner Kafe --- Doreen and the Wranglers --- the No Names --- The Bandanas --- The Four Just Men --- Busway--- Renegade--- Lee Curtis and the All Stars --- Comedy Express --- Roadrunner--- Balderdash --- Luke Warm and the Radiators --- The Tempos --- The 69ers --- Carol and the Memories --- BAD--- The Spidermen --- Formby Mafia --- Rockin Ronnie and the Phoenix Rock n roll band ---Kingsize Taylor band--- Farons Flamingos ---Wheels on Fire---I have stood in with*****Kingsize Taylor and the Dominoes --- The Mojos --- The Undertakers --- The Clayton Squares--- The Del Renas --- Nashville --- Juke Box Eddies --- The Bluesers -- Jimmy O'Connor and the Hy-Tones --- Wes Paul band --- Mark Guerrero --- Karl Terry band --- The Big Three --- Earl Preston ---- Scott Wheeler USA --- Chris Curtis (Searchers)--- Arthur Ashton --------------------------------------------------- I am 58 and divorced My son is 27 and lives with me, its a real bachelors pad, --------------------------------------------------------- I am a former Great Britain International at Wheelchair basketball and am proud of the fact i scored the winner agains't USA the first British player to do that..I have played for two of the top British club teams over my 37 years career Southport where I won 3 European honours and Oldham Owls where I had two European medals, plus numourous Domestic Honours, I then went on and coached at Oldham, Liverpool, and Wolverhampton. I have enjoyed my time in Wheelchair basketball, I made mistakes which are history now, you can't turn back the clock.But I am also proud to be told by a couple of players that I have been one of the most copied players in The British game. My son and I both play for The Vikings now, based in Liverpool, I had retired but have come back for the fitness side, being confined to a wheelchair restricts jogging,---I am a 60s drummer also and at the moment a member of 4 bands, Wheels on Fire a Country blues Rock band, with two girl vocalists. I am also drummer with Carol and the Memories, who had a record in the 60s called "Tears on My Pillow" and for nearly the last 8 years I have been drummer with Farons Flamingos which had the original British version of "Do You Love Me " also covered by Brian Poole and The Dave Clark Five, but Farons version was far by the best. Farons Flamingos don't perform that often due to Farons very frail these days after a number of heart attacks & strokes.I also play with a very good 60s band called The 69ers. I have also played with Kingsize Taylor and the Dominoes, Lee Curtis and the All Stars, The Mojos, The undertakers etc etc. I had retired from drumming a number of years ago when i went fully into a wheelchair and thought I would never be able to play anymore, But how wrong I was and I am back, with people saying I am playing drums better than ever. I am just enjoying doing what I am doing while I can, and I can Thank the charity organisation called MERSEYCATS for me playing again they encouraged me to get back behind the kit, they do a great job raising money for children of Merseyside, I also play drums for Sounds of the Sixties run by my great friends Kingsize Taylor, Marga Taylor and Wes Paul,at The Cavern every sunday plus wednesday night you will find me behind the kit at the Liverpool Rock N Roll Society charity night.and Thursdays at Merseycats raising money for sick kids------------------as well as my son I have 3 daughters and 6 grandchildren the oldest granchild nearly 19 and i glad to say I am close to them all. I also have two dogs and two cats , What do I want from Life, to be able to carry on enjoying my time here, I am not flushed with money as matter of fact I am a real musician always broke. But I have always said if drumming meant just making money, I would quit drumming, the day it becomes a business, thats the day the soul goes, and I will Quit.
