Does anybody know anything about a band called Accrington Stanley who formed in 1970 and were around for only a year or two? Their members comprised Rod Hill and Dave Foster - both ex-Warriors - Jim Payne - from Gideon's Way(?) - Brian Johnstone and Dave "Wammy" Walmsley (Who I saw gigging outside a bar in Benidorm just last week!).

They played the top London clubs like the Marquee and were all set to be signed to the Rolling Stones' record label, then for some reason they fell apart. Anybody got any info on them?
