Who remembers this gig?
Kevin Sherwood… Another one i missed but saw him on the pier with Man and Iceberg. A brilliant guitarist and author and unless I’m dreaming saw him in Mr Cherries with Mickey Jones sometimes in the 1980’s.
Phil Little… They played in Mr Cherry’s in 1991 before doing two gigs at The Yorkshire Grey in 1992
Kevin Sherwood… Cheers couldn’t remember quite when but they were great.
Gerry Fortsch… I remember having a few drinks and stuff with him a few years ago, I think it was at the Round House when my mates Nektar were playing.
Jan Warren… Aaaaawwww, blesss gorgeous man
Phil Little… The photo was taken in the office at Light From Darkness Studios in the basement of the Old Observer Building. The band stayed there before and after the gig.
Alan Esdaile… Here’s Phil talking about it recently…
Yvonne Cleland… Man played the Yorkshire Grey?! Wow!
Sandy Max… My mate Deke…went to a party with the band after; they were always great fun! Next time they came down he saw me arrive and called out “look out, here comes trouble!” Cue a very red-faced me heading for the bar!
The Pullbacks – Pete Prescott & Chris Sambrook – The Carlisle Hastings

The band were called ‘The Pullbacks’ and had Joe Rytlewski on guitar and Martin Richter on bass.
Tony Qunta….The drummer from the first proper band I was in in Hastings with Andy Q!
Pete Prescott….i could get radio 4 on that haircut.its outside the carlisle around 1990/91 its Chris and Joe rytlewski was on guitar.i was passing and invited up to sing (probably) natural born woman.we were also joined by Richard (not sure of his 2nd name) the drummer of caravan.he was the landlord of a pub the lost boys played at in ashford.nice guy.good drummer.i used to love watching Chris play.he always put so much into his playing.
Yvonne Cleland…Phil Little was the drummer after Chris. Jez Gillett used to do vocals and keyboard for the Pullbacks when he didn’t have a gig with the Lost Boys.
