GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN
Hello Sharon,
And welcome to the Forum. Many members here had dealings with your father and his business - I personally bought a set of Ajax Vibes (Boosey & Hawkes) from Cecil Viles, who was your father's manager at that time (1960). I moved to Dorset in 1961, but can't recollect your father's appearance on Lunch Box prior to then, though I didn't watch every programme and it may well have been after I left the area. I understand that Gerry Allen's drummer, Lionel Rubin, is still alive and living, I believe, in Leicestershire. He may well recall something. I'll see if I can dig up some more information tomorrow as I am just off out in a minute.
Kind regards,
Maurice
