About Me |
|
| Chewy Benson was born under the red light of Blackburn's Thwaites brewery.
His formative years were spent in the pursuit of the corect use of the English language. Dictionary's are his faviroute and most important muse. In the 30's he played with the great Jack Hylton as a percussionist and sometime tailor. His love of jazz music flourished with a stint backing Sinatra wannabes in working men's clubs all over the north west. He is presently working on a cure for donk and expects to have rid the country of this scourge in the near future. |
