“Just to put the record straight about this mythical record… it was only a demo and never released in fact I can’t recall ever seeing or hearing a copy, I think it was just cut straight to disc but only the one copy.
We carried on after Chris left with another drummer Colin Smith we put an organ on Jimmy ?? We played a lot of the Theatre clubs and had a manager called Ray called it a day in late 1965.
I carried on in music professionally until 2014 when health caused me to quit.
I look back with good memories of The Outriders…
One New Years Eve we had a double ..Buxton Pavilion and Chorley College, we couldn’t get out of the locked gates at Buxton so drove our big van through them and got to Chorley on time”
“Hi , One of songs recorded at Nield & Hardys was Certain Memory and the other was The Girl with Green eyes
It was produced by Mike Mansfield who had just left The Dakotas (Billy J Kramer)
Green Eyes was written by Chris & myself about Ellen, Chris’s 1st wife. I wrote Certain Memory.
I saw CJH about 10 years ago with Brian Higginbottom who took the bass role after Arthur, I met up with Arthur around 2007 in High Lane when my band worked in a Country Music club
I tried to contact GJ to buy his Guild Stafford if he had it, but his wife just screamed at me down the phone.
Paul are you Ellen’s son if so say a huge hello from me.
