Supplied by Hastings Groups from 1958 to the present

with Marjorie ?, Tony Jefferies, Colin Tapp, Barry Goodall and Peter Bailey

Martin Waghorne… Barry Goodall enjoying retirement now. I hear he’s still playing a bit with his brother Keith Goodall around the old town. I worked with Barry.

Len Smith… Was it Brian on drums with Redcoats or Tony Jefferies?

Lloyd Johnson… Colin ‘Sid’ Tapp lived in my road…I made a guitar when I was a kid, tried to copy the Everly Brothers guitars, it was black with white binding.When it was built I painted it black and then varnished it…the vanished reacted with the paint and it ended up crackle finish…I sold it to Colin later .He told me it was his first guitar when we met up a year of so back….Barry Goodall and Pete Bailey and his twin brother were in my class at Priory road….

Pete Millington… I seem to remember Pete Bailey’s brother was the drummer of the Redcoats at some time around 1961/2 So long ago so I may be wrong

Lloyd Johnson… His name was Derek Bailey…I’ve been racking my brain trying to remember his name …Tex Bailey their dad taught a lot of kids how to play the guitar…nice man!

Harry Randall… I’m wondering if that’s the Pete Bailey I knew in the sixties he is still around and a mate of John Petrie
