Nottingham group circa 1970/71
A wild group fronted by Nick Turner, who many will remember as the proprietor of the Nottingham city centre venue “The Chameleon” during the 21st century and also in groups “The Frogs” in the eighties and “Big Bandit”.
The six piece line up included guitarist Mick O’Gorman, bass guitarist Wayne Evans and Steve Morley. Near the end of the groups life Mick Barratt joined on drums. He was only with them for three gigs when the group folded. Mick Barratt and Wayne Evans decided to form their own group which would eventually become “Gaffa“.
One of the last gigs they did was in Nottingham Market Square in the summer of 1971. Here are some photo’s from that day.
