Peter Alland… photo of the ‘SPIDERS’ playing at the Lewes Boys Club early 1965, having just changed from their original name ‘THE FIVE PACES’ when they first started in 1964. From L-R Mick Nixon (lead guitar) Dave Green (drums) Pete Alland (lead vocals) Dave Field (bass guitar) & Brian James (rhythm guitar) shortly after this following a gig at Lewes Town Hall the name was changed to the ‘REBELS’ when Stan Milham joined(he was in the original REBELS in 1959). There were a number of changes made with musicians (like most bands) but the high profile was maintained until they disbanded in 1968.

Barry Newton… Now who has got the Whole collection ?

Alan Esdaile… Have not got all the colours but sure I have 4 different styles.

Leigh Weiland-Boys… Got a few in old juke box singles that I acquired back in the day!

Pete Shaw… I’ve got the 1961 Wurlitzer 2600S that required the centres to be taken out plus a 1965 Dansette player to put them back in!!

Mick O’Dowd… What would we have done without them. No good on auto-change record players though!
