Alan Esdaile… Played the pier many times, always excellent.

Chris Meachen… Kamikaze trident pilot is the only title of theirs I can remember.. Always a very entertaining band, though…

Chris Hunt…  Yay

Jan Ranson… Nice one

Mark Sims… Thanks, I haven’t seen that photo before. So many happy memories.

Peter Houghton… Yes I have seen them on the pier and they put on a very good show and they reminded me of Budgie

Vincent Pickering… Supported these guys at the Marquee Club in 1975. Our band was called ‘Benefit’.

Fred Ney… I saw Clemen Pull at the Marquee on 6 March 1974, supported by a band called Piggy, of whom I know nowt! Entry was 40p and, in the ‘posh’ bar to the left-hand side of the stage, I spotted the Clemen Pull Fan Club executive members (!) Phil Lynott (Thin Lizzy), Lee Jackson (Refugee, ex-Nice), Patrick Moraz (Yes) and Tony Stratton-Smith (Charisma Records head honcho).

David Pike… Played the Marquee Club several times in the mid-seventies. Also Upstairs at Ronnie Scott’s in Frith Street, plus various venues in and around London, etc. The name of our group was called, Benefit. I was the drummer and one of the founding members, along with Steve Pickering and a guy called Chris Holt. Brian Mitch Mitchell was our vocalist. Steve’s younger brother joined us after Chris, plus another Guitarist called Paul had joined us for a brief period.
