GUITAR & VOICE
BY
'ARRY.
Hello there! I'm Harry or Haz. I started out on the same road as Terry and Lol way back in the sixties. After several years of posing in front of the wardrobe mirror, I decided it was about time that I got down to some serious practice and try to learn a tune all the way through, (he still has trouble in this department! Tel & Lol). Luckily my school mate, Roger Hubbard, played guitar and we teamed up together for a laugh!Good fortune smiled on me when the guitar that my brother had ordered went missing in the post only to reappear after a replacement had been sent. I was the proud owner of a brand new electric guitar. A Futurama 2. WOW!
My first amp however was anything but new being my mother's beloved, old, valve radio. Crude but effective. Who would have thought that this was the start of something that would bring me so much joy for the rest of my life?
I've had funny times, like going to my first ever gig carrying my gear in a wheelbarrow. I've had bad times, like being stranded in Germany after our contract had fallen through with only three loaves of bread, (but no fish!), between eight of us. I've had successes; such as appearing on New Faces, Late Night Extra and the BBC Playhouse Theatre and all the ups and downs of life's super Rock & Roll highway.
Essentially, all of us have travelled the same path and share a love of sixties music and the poignant memories that each song brings.
I am proud to be a 6T and believe this to be the best band I have been a member of !!!
