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.

Moya Wilson…. How funny talked about them on NYE and heard them on the radio yesterday

Martin Richter… Retro always made me laugh 🙂 he`d pull out the most awful chord which rattled fillings and bounced pint glasses from their shelves and look round as though it was his Amp`s fault – happy days 🙂

Glenn Hoile… Blimey! Good times. Still remember Martins poster for the band! Wonder if anyone else does? It was a pic of Gordon banks!
