BIOGRAPHY:

One of the finest blues guitarists and singers I've ever heard, Miller Anderson was born on April 12th, 1945, in Houston, Renfrewshire, Scotland, near Glasgow.

THE ROYAL CRESTS

I don't have details, but Miller Anderson started his career in the group The Royal Crests in Scotland around 1964. More info, please!

THE ROYAL CRESTS #?	1964

KARL STUART AND THE PROFILES

Karl Stuart And The Profiles were a variation of The Royal Crests, this time being based in London, where they moved in March 1965:

KARL STUART AND THE PROFILES #?	1965
Miller Anderson guitar	+ others unknown to me. Help!

They released two singles in 1965: ´Love of my eyes / not a girl in a million´ and ´Haven´t they got better things / Touch of your hand´.

THE PROFILES

They simply changed their name to The Profiles (instead of Karl Stuart And The Profiles):

THE PROFILES #?	1965

THE VOICE

Still in 1965, Miller Anderson joined The Voice:

THE VOICE #?	1965
Miller Anderson guitar	Dave Dufort drums	+ others unknown to me. Help!

They only released a single, ´Train to disaster / Truth´ (1965, Mercury).

When Miller was to leave the band, he chose his replacement: none other than the great Mick Ronson, although they shared the guitar bill in the band for a month.

As I´ve said, Miller Anderson and Mick Ronson played together in The Voice for one month:

Then, Miller left them.

MILLER ANDERSON BAND

Miller Anderson and Dave Dufort formed a duo in the mid 60s:

MILLER ANDERSON BAND #1	?

But, they soon added Ian Hunter on bass and Dante Smith on keyboards, and they became The Scenery.

THE SCENERY

Miller Anderson had met Ian Hunter when they started doing sessions for bands and artists at Regent Sound Studios. Finally, they decided to put their own band, The Scenery:

THE SCENERY #1	?
Miller Anderson guitar, vocals	Ian Hunter bass, vocals	Dave Dufort drums

Soon later, The Scenery adds a 4th member:

THE SCENERY #2		?

Then, Dufort left the band.

John Vernon Smith joins as the new drummer for The Scenery:

Ian Hunter and Miller Anderson recorded the song ´Queue jumping´ as a demo, and it later turned up on a Japanese EP in Japan under the name The Scenery. I've also read another EP (the same one?) was released in Germany. Can anyone help here, please?

FREDDIE FINGERS LEE BAND

This was the Freddie Fingers Lee Band in 1967, using most of the members of The Scenery:

An old friend of Miller, drummer Dave Dufort, calls him to join his band Paper Blitz Tissue in 1968:

Paper Blitz Tissue includes a new drummer in their lineup, the soon-to-be famous Bill Bruford, replacing Dave Dufort:

AT LAST THE 1958 ROCK´N´ROLL SHOW

In March 1968, Miller Anderson joined the band with the strange name, At Last the 1958 Rock'n'roll Show. Here he met Ian Hunter again:

They were managed by Colin Johnson (Status Quo manager). They released one single, ´I can´t drive / Working on the railroad´ (1968, CBS), produced by Jimmy Duncan.

The group played ´I Can't Drive´ on the German TV show BEAT CLUB in Bremen, summer of 1968 (I have it!). In October 1968, the band changed their name to Charlie Woolfe.

It can be read in some parts that legendary drummer Carlo Little was the drummer here, but Carlo told me he wasn't part of this group, although he played in several bands with Freddie ´Fingers´ Lee. Please, check out his own website with very interesting info about this very missed rock pioneer.

THE SCENERY (again)

Miller Anderson and Ian Hunter decided to abandon Charlie Woolfe, so they resurrected The Scenery:

Flash forward to February 1990: Ian Hunter and Miller Anderson have remained friends ever since, and they have often jammed together. In February 1990 they did a set together at a club near Miller's house. Anyone was lucky enough to be there?

DAVID MCWILLIAMS BAND

Singer David McWilliams was backed by the band The Scenery (featuring Miller Anderson and Ian Hunter) for a British tour:

KEEF HARTLEY BAND

Keef Hartley finally called the great Miller Anderson to join as vocalist and lead guitarist, in November 1968:

KEEF HARTLEY BAND #3			Nov 68-?
Miller Anderson guitar, vocals	Ian Cruickshank † guitar (as Spit James)	Gary Thain † bass	Dino Dines † keyboards	Keef Hartley † drums

Keef found in Miller a fantastic companion, a superb guitarist and singer, who composed most of the songs.

With Miller's voice, they release the fantastic album, Halfbreed, recorded in three days, with a funny introduction where you can hear John Mayall's conversation with Keef, when he tells him he's out of Bluesbreakers band. The track is appropiately named ´Sacked´. Dino (here, credited as Peter Dines) co-writes half of the tracks in the album. Notice has to be made about all the guitar parts in the album were recorded by Spit. Miller just included the vocals, no guitars.

In the album, there's a horn section to enrich their sound (mainly Hartley former bandmates in John Mayall band):

Henry Lowther (trumpet, violin)

Harry Beckett (trumpet)

Lyn Dobson (tenor sax, flute)

Chris Mercer (tenor sax)

Once Spit James leaves the band, Miller Anderson takes the guitar role completely. New changes leave the lineup as follows:

KEEF HARTLEY BAND #4			?
Miller Anderson guitar, vocals	Gary Thain † bass	Henry Lowther trumpet, violin	Jimmy Jewell sax	Keef Hartley † drums

This lineup played in Woodstock Festival, on its second day, although unfortunately they don't appear on the movie or soundtrack. I also have the extended video edition of the movie with almost 1 additional hour of footage, but, sadly, KHB isn't there.

To remind a bit of the atmosphere of what happened there, I copy here a brief excerpt from liner notes written by Michael J. Fairchild for the album The Woodstock diary (1994, Atlantic), about that 2nd day:

´Rainless Saturday concerts bring euphoric peaks. Participants groove to the tunes of Quill, Keef Hartley, Santana, Mountain, Canned Heat, Creedence Clearwater Revival, the Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin, Sly & The Family Stone, the Who, and the Jefferson Airplane. Gladiator gods at the frontliness of consciousness, these bands lead the masses past breakthrough peaks. Rock's Freedom Beat by moonlight unites the tribes at the apex of a decade. Woodstock's field of dreams awakens ancient rites and Sabbat dance. The music is a fruit rooted in Blues, ripening sweet in a half-million heads. It is the Saturnalia of the Century, casting possession frenzy 'til dawn...´

For their next album, the lineup changes is increased with Mick Weaver:

KEEF HARTLEY BAND #5				?
Miller Anderson guitar, vocals	Gary Thain † bass	Mick Weaver keyboards	Henry Lowther trumpet, violin	Jimmy Jewell sax	Keef Hartley † drums

They release their second album, The battle of North West Six, another superb album. It was still recorded with Spit James in the band, with contributions from Mick Taylor (The Rolling Stones) guesting on guitar on one track. Plus Mike Davis (trumpet), Harry Beckett (trumpet, fluegelhorn), Lynn Dobson (tenor saxophone, flute), Chris Mercer (tenor saxophone), Barbara Thompson (baritone saxophone, flute) and Ray Warleigh (flute).

When they were recording their third album, The time is near, Lowther and Jewell leave the band:

KEEF HARTLEY BAND #6				?
Miller Anderson guitar, vocals	Gary Thain † bass	Mick Weaver keyboards	Dave Caswell trumpet	Lyle Jenkins sax	Keef Hartley † drums

Dino Dines comes back to the band for a while:

KEEF HARTLEY BAND #7				?-Dec 70
Miller Anderson guitar, vocals	Gary Thain † bass	Dino Dines † keyboards	Dave Caswell trumpet	Lyle Jenkins sax	Keef Hartley † drums

But the new members don't stay long time in the band, and they leave the band in December 1970, after recording some superb sessions for BBC Radio 1.

The lineup of Keef Hartley Band changes to an incredible quartet:

KEEF HARTLEY BAND #8		Dec 70-?
Miller Anderson guitar, vocals	Gary Thain † bass	Mick Weaver keyboards	Keef Hartley † drums

They release the album Overdog, with help from former member Dino Dines (keyboards) and Colosseum drummer Jon Hiseman, who was friends with Keef.

Front, from left to right: Michael Rosen, Mike Davis, Terry Noonan, Martin Drover, Harry Beckett, Keef Hartley, Miller Anderson

The Keef Hartley Band converts into a big band, in order to record a live album in the legendary Marquee in London, called Little big band. They toured with a big lineup, up to 20 members sometimes. But this was the personnel list for the live album:

After the live recording, the band turned into their usual aspect (a quintet).

At some point, great horn man Lyn Dobson joins Keef Hartley Band, although he had already played in some of the former albums:

KEEF HARTLEY BAND #?			1971
Miller Anderson guitar, vocals	Gary Thain † bass	Mick Weaver keyboards	Lyn Dobson flute, sax	Keef Hartley † drums

They played some tracks for BBC in March 1971.
And soon later, Miller Anderson thinks of pursuing a solo career. They get a new guitarist, Junior Kerr (alias for Junior Marvin, also known as Junior Hanson).

MILLER ANDERSON BAND

After releasing his solo album, Bright city, Miller Anderson assembled a band to make some concerts. Although he didn't tour, there are at least some sessions for the BBC in 1971. He called many of his friends that played in the album:

They performed 4 songs for those sessions: ´To whom it may concern´, ´Shadows ´cross my wall´, ´On the ship to nowhere´ and ´High tide, high water´.

BLOOD SWEAT & TEARS

This was a very short episode. The band had lost their singer, David Clayton Thomas (who substituted the original member and founder, the magnificent Al Kooper). So, Miller was called to join the band thanks to Ian Hunter recommending him, but for some reason, it didn't work, so he really spent just a few days rehearsing with them:

HEMLOCK

Around January 1973, Miller Anderson formed his own band with Mick Weaver, called Hemlock:

HEMLOCK #1			Jan 73-Oct 73
êKeef Hartley Band
Miller Anderson guitar, vocals	Jim Leverton bass	Mick Weaver keyboards	Dino Dines † keyboards	Eric Dillon drums
Savoy Brownê	Savoy Brownê			Savoy Brownê

They released a self-titled album, Hemlock, originally conceived as Miller´s second solo album, with help from Pete Willsher on steel guitar and Miller´s mate Chris Mercer on sax. They toured supporting Procol Harum in England in March 1973, followed by another tour supporting Savoy Brown and Uriah Heep. The band in the tour was advertised as Miller Anderson With Hemlock.

In the tour, the chemistry between Kim Simmonds (leader in Savoy Brown) and Miller finished with the offer of forming a band together (a variation of Savoy Brown called The Boogie Brothers), and Miller took Hemlock´s rhythm section with him, so Hemlock´s life was quite short, although they started another British tour in October 1973 with Darryl Way´s Wolf and Pete Brown, but split in the middle of this tour.

SAVOY BROWN

Next step for Miller Anderson was to join blues band Savoy Brown in January 1974. In the band, there was three superb guitarists at the same time: Kim Simmonds (the leader of the band, he still maintains the group active), Stan Webb (from another great blues band, Chicken Shack), and Miller Anderson:

SAVOY BROWN #?			Jan 74-Dec 74
Kim Simmonds guitar	Miller Anderson guitar, vocals	Stan Webb guitar, vocals	Jim Leverton bass	Eric Dillon drums

Many of the songs from the Boogie Brothers album were written by Miller. They toured extensively the States. But there were too many leaders in the band, and they only stayed together until December 1974.

DOG SOLDIER

Dog Soldier

In 1975, Keef Hartley and Miller Anderson joined forces again, in the short-lived band Dog Soldier:

DOG SOLDIER #1			1975
Miller Anderson guitar, vocals	Derek Griffiths guitar, vocals	Paul Bliss bass, vocals	Mel Simpson keyboards, vocals	Keef Hartley † drums

After releasing their self-titled album, Dog Soldier, Keef Hartley and Paul Bliss left the band, who carried on with new members.

The new members of Dog Soldier were Miller Anderson´s mates, Jim Leverton and Eric Dillon:

DOG SOLDIER #2			1975

MICK TAYLOR BAND

After the Dog Soldier separation, Miller Anderson and Mick Taylor met again (they had met in some sessions in the Keef Hartley Band). Mick had assembled a powerful band with ex-members from Stone the Crows, and they were looking for a lead singer. Miller came here:

MICK TAYLOR BAND #?			?

They recorded some tracks for an album, but Mick Taylor finally chose being himself the lead singer in the album, so Miller left them. The tracks were never released, sadly.

T REX

Around August 1976, Marc Bolan changes T Rex completely, only keeping Dino Dines, who recruits his old mate Miller Anderson:

They only released an album, Dandy in the underworld. With lots of guests and former members: Gloria Jones (backing vocals), Scott Edwards (bass), Steve Currie (bass), Paul Humphrey (drums), Paul Fenton (drums), Davy Lutton (drums), and from Gonzalez: Chris Mercer (sax), Steve Gregory (flute), Bud Beadle (flute, sax), Colin Jacas (backing vocals).

Miller left the band to join Donovan for a tour. And sometime later, when he was thinking of coming back to T. Rex, Marc Bolan´s sad death happened in the form of car accident, on September 16th, 1977.

DONOVAN BAND

Miller Anderson joined Donovan for a tour in 1977:

Miller didn´t play in any Donovan album, although he appears in a photo in the album Donovan (1977, Rak). But all the guitars in that album were played by the great, late Isaac Guillory. The album was recorded at The Chateau in France with Mickie Most producing. Then, they toured USA and Europe as special guest with Yes, promoting the album.

At some point, the backing band was reduced to a duo, plus Donovan:

Finally, in 1978, Miller and Ronnie leave Donovan to form their own band, The Dukes.

THE DUKES

It was around 1979, when Miller and Ronnie Leahy start a new band, called The Dukes:

But they soon changed the rhythm section.

The Dukes added the great Jimmy McCulloch:

They recorded their only album with two guest drummers: Stuart Elliott and Barry De Souza.

They had a minor success with the single ´Hearts in trouble´, and soon after that, Jimmy McCulloch sadly died.

The Dukes carried on with Mick Grabham:

MOUNTAIN

The thing started as a collaboration between Ian Hunter and Corky Laing, who was the drummer in Mountain. They wrote several songs together, and Ian called Miller to sing and play guitar there. But next step was calling Leslie West, so the project was called Mountain again circa October 1982. Miller then had to switch to bass tasks:

MOUNTAIN #?	Oct 82-Dec 82
Leslie West guitar, vocals	Miller Anderson vocals, bass	Corky Laing drums

They started recording an album, Go for your life, but Miller realized his part was to be too small, so he left them. Some of his contributions are in the album, although most of it went uncredited. Mark Clarke was called to record the bass tracks, and Pete Solley was the producer. It still keeps Ian Hunter appearance too, on keyboards.

Miller Anderson also played as a duo with Richard Martin shortly after leaving Mountain:

SPENCER DAVIS GROUP

The Spencer Davis Group lineup around 1988 was:

SPENCER DAVIS GROUP #?				1988
Spencer Davis vocals	Chris Farlowe vocals	Miller Anderson guitar, vocals	Colin Hodgkinson bass, vocals	Zoot Money keyboards, vocals	Pete York drums

They released a live album, Extremely live at Birmingham Town Hall. Miller is great in ´Feets too big´, and the funny ´Ain’t nothin’ shakin’ but the bacon´. Great guitar solo in ´The thrill is gone´ and perfect work on ´Stormy Monday´.

PETE YORK BAND

They toured Germany during November and December 1988, under the name of Pete York´s R&B Revue:

PETE YORK BAND #?			Nov 88-Dec 88
Chris Farlowe vocals	Miller Anderson guitar	Colin Hodgkinson bass	Eddie Hardin † keyboards	Pete York drums

Colin was part of a band called Pete York & Superblues, based in Germany. The band was another variation from later Spencer Davis Group lineups, and reunites again some veterans from the British blues-rock scene:

PETE YORK BAND #?			?
Chris Farlowe vocals	Miller Anderson guitar	Colin Hodgkinson bass	Tony Ashton † keyboards	Pete York drums

They played some live footage for German TV.

There's a live album recorded with this (great) lineup:

PETE YORK BAND #?				1989
Chris Farlowe vocals	Spencer Davis guitar, vocals	Miller Anderson guitar	Gary Twigg bass	Harvey Weston bass	Eddie Hardin † keyboards

Tony Ashton †
keyboards

Wolfgang Norman Dalheimer
keyboards

Dick Morrissey †
sax

Roy Williams
trombone

Bea Gebauer

Pete York
drums

Superblues is a very good album, with renditions of the Billie Holliday classic ´Lover man´, Chris Farlowe´s early hit ´Out of time´, as well as some rock'n'roll classics, ´High heel sneakers´ and ´Johnny B. Goode´. Miller really shines on the tracks ´Dimples´, ´Born again / Get back´ and ´Resurrection shuffle´.

In October and November 1989, we can find another edition of The Olympic Rock & Blues Circus, led by Pete York:

PETE YORK BAND #?				1989
Chris Farlowe vocals	Miller Anderson guitar	Colin Hodgkinson bass	Jon Lord † keyboards	Tony Ashton † keyboards, vocals	Pete York drums

Still in October and November 1989, The Olympic Rock & Blues Circus included Zoot Money instead of Tony Ashton:

In March 1990, Pete York´s new band is called Daddy & The Steamers, now with great singer Roger Chapman as frontman:

PETE YORK BAND #?				Mar 90
Roger Chapman vocals	Miller Anderson guitar	Colin Hodgkinson bass	Jon Lord † keyboards	Tony Ashton † keyboards, vocals	Pete York drums

In June 1990, we have a new edition of Daddy & The Steamers:

Pete York drums	Chris Farlowe vocals	Miller Anderson vocals	Bea Gebauer vocals	Harvey Weston bass	Wolfgang Norman Dalheimer keyboards

Dick Morrissey †

Roy Williams

X-T-REX

As we can guess by the name, X.T.Rex was a sort of tribute to T.Rex. Miller and Dino Dines team with singer Darryl Read around 1993:

X-T-REX #?		?
Darryl Read vocals	Miller Anderson guitar	Dino Dines † keyboards	+ others unknown to me (maybe Paul Feldon?)

MILLER ANDERSON BAND (again)

Miller Anderson also played solo with no backing players during several periods of his career. For example, he played at the Blackheath Concert Halls in South London on September 13th, 1993 with great acoustic guitarists John Renbourn (from Pentangle) and the late ones Bert Jansch (also from Pentangle) and Davy Graham. Miller went on to do several gigs supporting Bert.

MILLER ANDERSON BAND #?	1993
Miller Anderson vocals, guitar

He also toured, playing solo, during January and February 1994, supporting the late Alan Hull. Then, he was to record an album with people from the blues band Buick 6, but that finally never happened.

Miller Anderson and Colin Hodgkinson appear as a trio with former Back Door drummer, Tony Hicks, in the Open Air Festival in June 1994:

MILLER ANDERSON BAND #?		Jun 94
Miller Anderson guitar	Colin Hodgkinson bass	Tony Hicks † drums	+ maybe others, unknown to me. Help!

I'm not sure about the name of the band, and if they were accompanied by more musicians. Did anyone see them to tell me a review?

JON LORD BAND

During a break in Deep Purple tours and recordings, Jon Lord reunited with some of his friends, in order to play two gigs. They chose the band name Jon Lord & The Gemini Band:

JON LORD BAND #?		1995
Miller Anderson guitar	Colin Hodgkinson bass	Jon Lord † keyboards	Pete York drums

This happened in July 1995.

SPENCER DAVIS GROUP (again)

This was the lineup for Spencer Davis Group around 1995, now without Colin Hodgkinson, but including Gary Twigg and an expanded lineup:

SPENCER DAVIS GROUP #?				1995
Spencer Davis guitar, vocals	Miller Anderson guitar, vocals	Gary Twigg bass	Wolfgang Norman Dalheimer keyboards	Albie Donnelly sax, vocals	Pete York drums, vocals

In 1997 there is another reunion of Spencer Davis Group:

SPENCER DAVIS GROUP #?			1997
Spencer Davis guitar, vocals	Miller Anderson guitar, vocals	Colin Hodgkinson bass, vocals	Wolfgang Norman Dalheimer keyboards, vocals	Pete York drums, vocals

They released a live album, recorded live April 1997 in Regensburg, Alte Mälzerei. It's called Payin´ them blues dues - The Spencer Davis Group alive ´97.

For a short period, Spencer Davis leaves them (he probably went to tour the States with his American version of the band):

SPENCER DAVIS GROUP #?		1997
Miller Anderson guitar, vocals	Colin Hodgkinson bass, vocals	Wolfgang Norman Dalheimer keyboards, vocals	Pete York drums, vocals

They were touring Europe in summer/fall 1997.

But soon, around November 1997 Spencer Davis joins the band again:

DEEP PURPLE (touring troupe)

Deep Purple decided recording their concerto with orchestra after 30 years. It was followed by a long tour, where the band tried to enjoy a wide celebration with friends. Apart from the concerto itself, every member of the band played some of his solo material, backed with assorted friends and colleagues. Miller Anderson went with them in order to sing some of the Jon Lord material, thus appearing in the 2CD live. I'll write the complete credits of the album when I get my copy back from a friend who asked me to lend it to him. :)

MILLER ANDERSON BAND (again)

In October 2000, Miller Anderson was touring with Deep Purple. But he also played a private gig with some of his best mates from the tour:

DISCOGRAPHY: (80 albums known to me - Status: Quite advanced)

OWN ALBUMS (10 credits)

Bright city - Miller Anderson (September 1971)

Members: Miller Anderson + Eric Dillon, Lyn Dobson (RIP: Dino Dines, Gary Thain)
Guests: Mick Weaver + Madeline Bell, Junior Campbell, Neil Hubbard, Liza Strike (RIP: Harry Beckett)
Producer: Neil Slaven
Comments: Miller Anderson recorded his first solo album, Bright city, in 1971, soon after he left Keef Hartley Band. That's why we can find here many of his bandmates here: the late, much-missed Gary Thain, Mick Weaver and Peter Dino Dines. Later CD reissues contain 1 bonus live track.
My opinion: It's a fantastic and very fine album. Some of my favourite tracks are ´High tide, high water´ and ´Alice mercy´ to name a few, although all the tracks are really superb.

Extremely live at Birmingham Town Hall - C. Farlowe - S. Davis - P. York - C. Hodgkinson - Z. Money - M. Anderson (1988) (LIVE)

Members: Miller Anderson, Spencer Davis, Chris Farlowe, Colin Hodgkinson, Zoot Money, Pete York
Comments: Recorded live in July 1988.
My opinion: Miller are Colin are great in ´Feets too big´, and the funny ´Ain’t nothin’ shakin’ but the bacon´. Great guitar solo in ´The thrill is gone´ and perfect work in ´Stormy Monday´ (also featuring a bass solo by Colin Hodgkinson).

Celtic moon - Miller Anderson (March 1998)

Members: Miller Anderson + Colin Hodgkinson
Guests: Wolfgang Norman Dalheimer + Jackie Carter, Wolfgang Haffner, Olaf Kubler
Producer: Frank Diez
Comments: This is Miller´s second solo album, 17 years after his first one. Recorded by Miller Anderson (guitar, vocals), Colin Hodgkinson (bass), Wolfgang Norman Dalheimer (keyboards), Olaf Kübler (sax) and Wolfgang Haffner (drums). Produced by guitarist Frank Diez (Colin Hodgkinson's partner in The Electric Blues Duo).
My opinion: A superb album, if you ask me, mostly acoustic. It starts with a superb song, ´Fog on the highway´. My other favourite song here is ´Two ships´ (with a superb work by Colin Hodgkinson). There's a song, the very beautiful ´Fool's gold´, that was also recorded in his Hemlock album, in 1973. And there's a cover of a traditional song, ´Tamp ´em up solid´ that was also covered by Ry Cooder.

Bluesheart - Miller Anderson (2003)

Members: Miller Anderson
Guests: Dave Baldwin, Norman Beaker, Paul Burgess, John Price + Doreen Chanter, Irene Chanter (RIP: Jon Lord)

Guests: Dave Lambert, Rick Wakeman + Roger Glover (RIP: Robert Kirby + Jon Hiseman)
Producer: Tom Allom
Comments: Dave Cousins was the leader of superb folk-rock group The Strawbs. The beautiful album Two weeks last summer was his first solo, and it contains important collaborations: some members of Strawbs play here: Dave Lambert (guitar, vocals), Rick Wakeman (keyboards), plus Miller Anderson on guitar, Roger Glover (Deep Purple) on bass, and Jon Hiseman (Colosseum) on drums.
My opinion: Great album. My favourite songs are the lenghty ´Blue angel´ and ´Ways and means´ (with superb lead guitar).

Hi, I'm trying to contact Derek Needham who played bass with Paper Blitz Tissue. I was the drummer in Glen Athens and the Trojans, Derek was the bass player with Tim Guest and Mick Roberts on guitar. Glen Athens was Phil Saunders. We toured Germany and France in 1964 but sadly broke up in 1965. Any information on how I can get in touch with Derek would be appreciated. Dave.
