By the way, do you remember any other musicians from that Alan Price Band? By the way, there was a Charlie Drake drummer in the band Sunday's Children. Are you the one?

The band I played in supported Alan Price at The Belfrey near Birmingham in about 1970 and Craig was their drummer then. An excellent player (far better than me I'm afraid !!!)Bonzohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03154353626697853111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6239462032076233428.post-49117554732984383692017-12-05T13:38:59.842+01:002017-12-05T13:38:59.842+01:00Hi, mac - first of all, thanks for writing the com...Hi, mac - first of all, thanks for writing the comment.
