Stryder

Guess what I found in the attic after it being there 20 years! (Can’t upload the photo, but I did find a copy of the single).

Grove 78 thru 81

This would have been 1979 !!!

If we knew one of their dates of birth, we could calculate it! (Ger's? )

No but my guess is about 1980-81?
I pm'd Ger so hopefully he will see this and will have a better idea.

By the way, the picture that appears as the "cover art" was taken by the talented Finno. Many thanks Finno.

Ur right - Joe has moved on but he is still in contact with the guys in the Visions and I think he steps in when Kev is not available - Kev is also playing lead with a band called Terraform.

Spend 7 years in London myself from 88 - digging holes - and had the same experience - 300 punt flight home !!!!

So is there any chance that you guys would get together once more and give us a great night out ???

Hi Ger

Mark W here...I remember Dad bringing me a copy of the single and I think we have a copy somewhere among the vinyl piled in the attic in his house...remember being ill when he told uz u played the AH.

Have sent Joe a message to tell him about this thread - he has some great pics that everyone might like to see so I've asked him to post them. Young Kev played with Joe recently in PV...and learnt lots....Joe doing lots of things.

Always wanted to go to the Grove with u guys but born too late...might share a beer at one of the reunions...say hello to all the K's for me....

Mark,

Great to hear from you. Young Kev is lucky to have a musician of Joe's calibre to learn from. I did'nt think Joe was still with Paranoid visions. I must look out for them gigging in town.

Tell your dad i was asking for him, i hope he and all your family are well. Back when we were gigging in London there was no communication like there is now and we were really cut off from family & friends, apart from the odd phone call that cost a packet ! Trying to make our own way was tough going.

Thanks for letting Joe know about this thread - i hope he jumps in.

All the best,

Ger
