Re: Accy Legends -Isaac
 

For anyone interested in Geoff Heyes Funeral arrangements. The cremation is taking place at Burnley Rd Cemetery on Friday 29th June at 3pm. RIP Geoff.

Re: Accy Legends -Isaac
 

I have to say that when I read this thread the name didn't ring a bell, mind you I haven't been in Accy drinking for 30 years, but when I saw the photo in the Obs yesterday I suddenly realised who Isaac's was, he used to come to practice sessions with the band back in the 70s always brought his own drumsticks and like to sit in for a few numbers I knew him as Geoff though RIP

Re: Accy Legends -Isaac
 

Would imagine you'd know his mate, Florrie, too - ex-Holy Family and another good drummer!

Re: Accy Legends -Isaac
 

Wyn probably do mate, but maybe I know him under his real name, although Florrie does ring a bell somewhere:confused:

Re: Accy Legends -Isaac
 

Sorry, Jay - Kevin Florentine.

Re: Accy Legends -Isaac
 

Na Wyn don't know that name at all, how old will he be, I left Holy Family 50 years ago this month

Re: Accy Legends -Isaac
 

Would estimate about the same age as Isaac - 63-ish. Perhaps a couple of years younger than you, so possibly your paths didn't cross. Cashy knows him very well.

Re: Accy Legends -Isaac
 

He's about the same age as cashy, and I don't remember cashy from school

Re: Accy Legends -Isaac
 

A couple of years is nowt at our age, but a big gap when you're a teenager. Would imagine you'd probably know Florrie by sight.

Re: Accy Legends -Isaac
 

Ya no doubt Wyn you'd actually have thought I'd have know cashy by sight too after all he has an unforgettable fizzog don't he:D:D:D

Re: Accy Legends -Isaac
 

I'm saying nothing! ;)

Re: Accy Legends -Isaac
 

Kev was in the same class as me at school. I'm surprised you don't remember him. Bit like Issac, he was Leg end in his own time.

Re: Accy Legends -Isaac
 

Right, I've a question - why was he called "Isaac"? I was talking to a mate of mine earlier and he suggested that it might be after Isaac Hayes. However, I knew him as Isaac right from the mid-60's, when Isaac Hayes was completely unknown, so it seems unlikely. Anybody any ideas?

Re: Accy Legends -Isaac
 

Was wondering that meself on Friday, will ask Florry or Vito next time i bump into em, if they don't know no-one does.;) I always knew him as Isaac from around 62 ish,

Re: Accy Legends -Isaac
 

Right, cheers, mate. Isaac Hayes, future soul superstar was just some unknown bloke hanging around Memphis in '62, so that's that theory out of the window!
