"Jackie" magazine ... August 1966

My memory might be playing tricks on me but I’ve got this thought that they played in front of the boys in Penlan school. Probably between ‘64 and ‘66. Anyone throw any light on this, or maybe I’m just going senile.🙄

There used to be a group who played in the school around those dates.

I think their name was "Marshall" ??

That name doesn’t ding a dong with me I’m afraid.
 
Had a boy in the same class as me in school 1971/1972 , who is the image of top far right pic .
Minus the beard of course but he did have a tach even at 16 years old , thought of him as soon as i seen it .

I once upon a time had a cut like bottom row 2 nd from left , not much need of a comb these days :)

'Pugwash' Weathers was a fantastic drummer, saw him loads of time in the '70s with Gentle Giant and once with Man in the early '80s after Giant had disbanded. Top bloke too.
