Mysterons – Hastings 1968

supplied by Bernard Goffredo

Bernard Goffredo… Thanks to Tony Killick for the photo, probably the first proper gig. I think it was the church hall at the top of Clifton Road. Stephen Moran singing and he also played piano, me (Bernard Jeffrey) on drums and Tony Killick on guitar on the right. The other guitarist is I think called Paul Snook but I might have got that wrong

Stephen Moran… This is one of Bernard Jeffrey and I playing one of our church hall gigs I’m fairly sure this was about 1968. Tony moved to Manchester and the short-lived Mysterons were no more! We did have a couple of auditions for TV shows! Bernie and I played together as a duo just for fun really. We played a few times at the RAF club in Wellington Square or anywhere that had a piano! It was clear then that Bernie was a very talented drummer.

Shared from an article in Hastings Town magazine Oct/Nov 2021 where Tony May interviews Gerald Killick about growing up in Hastings in the 1960’s and 70’s. Very interesting article with many photos.

Alan Esdaile… Looking at the photo, not sure if its Caramel Crem or could it be Caramel Crew. The articles lists it as Caramel Cream.

Stephen Moran… Thank you for sharing Alan, I look forward to reading Gerald’s article. As you know we became the ‘The Mysterons’ around 1968 and when Tony moved to Manchester, Bernie and I played a bit around Hastings as a duo, just for fun really. They were happy times.
