Yep, a young, mad JB - Terry Williams.

Yep, a young, mad JB - Terry Williams.

He was a very good drummer too, saw him with Man quite a few times in the early-mid 70s, a fine live act they were too.

I've watched Man many times over the years, even saw them as "The Bystanders" before they morphed into Man.

I got to know Terry very well, when our young sons played rugby together, and used to see him many weekends when he was home, playing in the Cardiff Arms.

Not surprisingly, with those fast hands he was also a brilliant wicketkeeper!!

I also used to drink with Clive (Clint) John in the Tenby.

I just about remember being present at this live performance down The Patti.

I've got most of their albums, and there's even a single from The Bystanders with Owen Money as their lead singer.

Excellent stuff LR! Wasn't the 'Patti' album a double 10 inch iirc? A mate of mine at Uni had it, he had 'Padget' too. I've got a few from the period when I used to see them live but I was really pleased when the 2 Man tracks from the Greasy Truckers Party album were released on CD! The last time I saw Man would have been London early 80s when the line up was Jones, Leonard, Ace and 'Pugwash' Weathers on drums.

Yep, it is a 10" double album.
One of my favourite albums from the 1970's is "2 Oz of Plastic - With a Hole in the Middle"

Man's legacy is still going, with Micky Jones' son George playing guitar with "Son of Man" - Another brilliant live act.
