| 14/01/21 - A picture of the first band I formed after moving to Bury in 1960. The band was named ‘The Northside Six’ which played at the Fleece Hotel and the Beachcomber in Bolton, also the annual Arts Ball organised by Bolton College of Art. We also played at the Stanley Club in Accrington and many other venues until the band folded around 1965. This picture of the band was taken in 1964. The musicians were Brian Morrison on Bass, Jim Ashton on Banjo, Richard Dhana on Drums, Ray Bennett (now in Australia) on trombone, Dave Robinson on Trumpet (centre), and myself on clarinet. - Barry Aldous |

25/01/21 - I've been digging out old photos and recordings over the past few week and these evoke some great memories of my US trip. When I was in New York in April 1979 I met, amongst many others, Tommy Benford and bass player Johnny Williams and when they toured the UK in 1982 with Bob Greene’s band I met them again. Here’s me with Tommy and my then wife with Johnny Williams who, I must tell you, was the most delightful musician I met during the whole of my American trip. - Graham Martindale

Like all musicians I'm missing listening & playing. Probably like a lot of people I've been hunting through old photos and wonder if you could help me by putting the attached on your site. I realise it is from out your area but there are quite a few N.E. musicians living ''out west '' so hope someone may be able to help. I am wondering if anyone recognises the musicians in the photo. It's the Eric Ward Quartet from 1960. They operated around the Denton Burn area of Newcastle. Hope you can help - Jack Wilson |
