| One of my favourite bands back in the day were Big Country, and have just recently read the biography of their late frontman, Stuart Adamson.
One of his biggest influennces was Bill Nelson.
Not someone who I have tapped into. Will give him a listen, as I will pretty much listen to anything once.
Out of curiosity, what style music is he, and was he any good?

| That’s a great find Vasty, like a couple of others, somewhere back in time, I’d been told about this but haven’t seen or heard anything about him or his story for decades.
The Sun Has Got His Hat On, Lambeth Walk, Run Rabbit Run and Leaning on a Lampost made famous by George Formby.
The guy should definitely have a Star

Be Bop deluxe were/are classed as Prog (progressive) rock, he was a brilliant guitarist they are a band I keep going back to.

| I have known about him for years and surprised how many have not heard of him. I am sure he has a blue plaque on the main cathedral entrance and was a member of the choir back in the day.
Vasty here is another one for you, George Gissing. I am not a literature anorak but those who are tell me his skill as an author are comparable to Charles Dickens. He has a small house were he lived now turned into a museum and its near the Woolpacks.

| Will get hold of an album them and give him a listen.
Old enough though to remember nights at Wakefield Arms and Heppy. My Dad used to go, and I would sometimes go along in my early drinking days

Saw one of their very first 'gigs' at, of all places, Minsthorpe High School in South Elmsall, absolutely mind blowing for a young lad like me!

Newton Hill club, I think that’s what it was called , where I first saw Be Bop Deluxe and rightly so what has been said, they were class.
