and Bert is named there.

The bass player last night was a New Yorker now living in Gt Harwood, who jammed at the regular wednesday jam night there, and made a good impression.
He was good - so much so that last night he did several long solos.

I have seen Bert play with them when they were a larger group named Snatchin it Back. I don't attend the gigs often so I don't know how often Bert plays with them.

I remember Bert as a Mick Jagger look-alike
Cheers for that Margaret, i havn't seen any of them, Burt included for quite some time time now, as i dont get out as often as i used to. Used to see Rob, Bert, Les Walker etc at the Monday Jam nights at Stanley Street, and also up at the Shoulder of Mutton. In fact there was an American Lad popped up to see them the very last time i recall seeing them in the Shoulder but thats a while ago of course, so could be the same chap, i know he had relations in this area!

Nice chap is Burt actually, i suppose there may have been certain similarities with Burt and Sir Mick...cant ever picture Burt as a wild child in quite the same way though!!

Best Regards - Taggy
