Another one from my youth bites the dust. R.I.P Barrie

First saw the band in September '76 at Cardiff University when they were touted by the music press as a 'punk' band. They weren't really. They were a souped up R&B (that's proper 60s R&B, not the modern chavvie stuff) and were excellent live. Caught them live several times after this, and they put on anything less than a great live show!

Why that gig sticks in my mind, as well as the excellent set the band delivered, it was the first time I had seen punks at a gig and on the streets of Cardiff.
