Mandy Lifeboats Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Ian "Sludge" Lees. One that the Tiswas generation will remember. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veloman Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 (edited) Backed him quite a few times; he was 'play on - play off' though. A thoroughly professional act and thoroughly decent bloke. He played in some damn good bands in the 60's. RIP NB. It was quite a coincidence that TISWAS had another local musician, Roger 'Olly' Spencer on their programme. He was from another excellent local band called The Idle Race(Roger was the drummer). Unfortunately , idle Race spawned Jeff (SHA) Lynne! !

Paddywhack Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 I didn't like Jeff Lynne's name being in this thread then, thought he'd gone for a second. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
