Thanks Chris. I remember one night I was on the door and attempted to charge Stan Tracey entrance to his own gig!
We had a laugh about it.
I loaned Herb Ellis my Polytone amp and ferried him to/from the Central Station for that C/H gig. I think he was travel weary as he was rather reserved and didn't say much at all. But when I got him on to the train heading home he opened up and started to give me all sorts of tips, re. Van Eps String Dampers etc etc - I was extremely lucky to get off the train as the doors were closing otherwise I was on my way to London with him. I got quite a fright! He played great though. Swung like the clappers.
