That band is still going but Norman and the drummer are the only original members.Quote:

Then and now!......
1979 at the tender age of 17. Was supposed to be doing my ‘mock’ A-level Physics exam but I was getting a much more useful education at the Capital Radio Jazz Festival at the Ally Pally. Check out the line-up in the programme below.
I’m the one on the bottom left.

40 years later on holiday in Italy with my daughter Beth.
I’m doing a bad Samuel L Jackson impersonation to protect my little bald head from the sun.

Muddy Waters, Chuck Berry and BB King on the same bill! And whatever happened to Stephane Grappelli?
That's pure quality, Tony. Love the festival pic! Where's your doobie though, bro? :peace:;) Defo a great line up, although in those days I didn't 'do' jazz, or indeed classical music. It was strictly pop, rock and disco! I was a little younger than you though, in '79.
Nice pic with your daughter too. You're still looking good dude!
Marco.
P.S I spy someone's into Aperol spritz:eyebrows:
I still have the programme signed by BB King :-)Quote:

You look like a couple of extras from Only Fools and Horses. Or maybe an early episode of Eastenders in the Vic!Quote:

Looking thin again Roy.. I'm a fat bastard at moment
Lost half a stone but could do with losing another half (there is a belly under that top). Can still just about do skinny jeans justice.Quote:

I'd move that Luxman to a higher shelf Roy, gotta see those fabulous VU meters dancing, not hiding behind coffee table...
Thanks. Just a no.4 all over with a little scissor trim around the ears.Quote:

That's the trouble with recliners - you'd think they could make them less comfortable :( Looks good there, and those Tannoys make the amp look tiny! Bet it all sounds great :)
I'm very content Steve, as I've said elsewhere I've kissed a lot of frogs & spent a fair wedge to get where I am but, apart from maybe adding a streamer, I'm there.Quote:

Wow, I didn't realise she was that big! Be careful where you rest your chin Ian, that's right where the "Frontline Spot-on" goes...
Great set-up, Royster - very similar to my own, although my room is a little bigger... No doubt it sounds fab, as it looks very well set up, with the positioning of those Tannoys spot on (for the room)!:thumbsup:Quote:
