... zum Zeitpunkt das Brian 'Licorice' Locking gehen wird, der Schatten, und Bruce Welch von Gesundheit Beitragen kann aufhören will ..... Brian Bennett ist auf der Suche nach Arbeit?

If it's the same Hi-Fis (and judging from the other artists it's the right period), then they are the band that first Ted Harvey and then Malcolm Lenny joined after they left The Packabeats.

I noticed a name Judd Proctor on the sleeve of the above. Mo Foster speaks very highly of him in the ' 17 Watts' Book. Supposedly had the fastest left hand in the business in the 50s and was inspirational to HBM for his technical abilities.
Anybody know anything more?

Judd was a well known session and jazz player in London in the '50's.

He was also the guitarist with the Ray Ellington Quartet that played on the Goon Show broadcasts.

He used one of our Australian built Maton top line archtop guitars during this period.

Judd was a guest at the 2009 Pipeline Convention. There is a picture of Judd with Brian 'Licorice' Locking and Colin Pryce-Jones on p.36 of your copy of Pipeline Magazine No.81. What? You're not a subscriber to Pipeline Magazine? Shame on you! Contact Alan Taylor at 12 Thorkhill Gardens, Thames Ditton, Surrey, KT7 0UP immediately!
