Neil Chalcraft…. A piece of Local History . LP recorded by sussex Brass mid 1970’s still nice to lisen too. For a while they used a room above the bar of the North Star to pracitise on a Sunday morning when locals chose to complain at the noise Frank the land lord just opened more windows and asked them to play louder. Tim Lord their director did alot to encourage local children to play music.
