"I bought my treasured “Les Paul” in
1975 for £450 of hard earned cash
and joined a five piece harmony band
“Bugsy” working for “Wheatley
Taverns” among others. This band
performed my first Beach Boys song
“Good Vibrations”(I sang the same
part then as I do now). I met up
with bass player “Dave” and drummer
“Paul” when they were in “Endless
Summer” tribute band and I joined
Paul in “The Love Swallows” 6 piece
band in 1998. Both these bands
drifted away around 2000, and from
the sea spray came forth “The
Beached Boys”.
