Lance please forgive me if I'm wrong...but a couple of the pics you have Billy Harpers name on, to me appear to be to be of Art?
Well spotted Firewoman - thanks for pointing out the error of my ways. I have corrected the items. If I'd checked the names properly I'd have realised that Bill wasn't even there!
Wow, I was taught by Arthur Mowatt & spent many an occasion playing in the local tyneside wind band with himself & most of the others featured in these photos. I'd love to know whether my favourite teacher is still alive...
Sadly, Arthur passed away a few years ago - can't remember the exact year. Perhaps someone will be able to help.
