I remember reading then in either the London Evening Standard or the Evening News, there was a music column, I can't remember the name of the columnist but he had a running feud with Mr Sarah Greene, Mike Smith. The column had a name too but I can't recall that either. Ian, can you remember at all?
The hotel would be the Columbia or the Averard. Places where bands could blow off steam with a bit more latitude than your average 3 star.
I remember John Blake having a music column in the Eve-nin Stannat around that time. Was it him?
