Hi camouflage, well it all depends on when in the 70s we are talking about cause im blonde was once young and also worked for mick brooks at crooks. I was there early 70s( 72-74) ish and i know ivan last time i saw him he was selling cars. I dont remember dawn but the young lady who worked there after dawn remembers her. heard from ivan recently?

Hi texas i never saw the Barry Whitworth's band but i do know my dad was the drummer, Peter Jackson. They aslo played in the Brecon Hotel in rotherham and my dad backed artists like Roy Castle, Will Gaines and Sandy Powell. He also played with the Black Damonds and the Savoy Quintet. a guy called Nev Reaney also played with Barry Whitworth.
