Could the Banjo player be Mac Smith Banjo/Keyboards player?
Or even Hank Marvin!
Hi Lance. The date was in fact 1963. The band's banjo player was Terry Harvey but he was unable to make the occasion. Despite holding a banjo Brian Chester was on piano by then, I had only joined the band on trombone about two weeks previously. The drummer was Brian Liddell, an old school pal of mine. He moved to Cyprus and has only recently returned to live in Whitley Bay.
