that was the,short lived, immedialtly post "Babbacombe Lee" line up after DM and Norm had hightailed it, late 71 early 72 the exact dates escape me and no i never saw Swarb play anything like that monstrosity onstage, which, of course, doesn't mean he never did |

Here is a picture with more shorts (That is if I have attached the file correctly, fingers crossed). I think it was a soundcheck at Cropredy 1984.

OK the last picture appeared! So I am going to try and post a few more.
Here's one of the crowd at Cropredy 1984 probably Saturday afternoon.
Does anybody recognise themselves?

Swarb did some solo gigs around the mid-70s, can't remember when exactly. But he played it then (New Theatre, Cardiff). |

Great photo...that was my first Croppers Mine too - I have a few photos, but the quality may mean they're not worth posting here. |

Thanks for the replies David and Shelley.
Shelley please post away, the quality of my photos are not that great but hopefully they bring back memories.
Here is a photo of Whippersnapper in action from Cropredy 1984.

Shelley, there is a program called Arcsoft Photoimpressions6 which enhances poor quality photos once you have loaded them on your PC. Worth a look. |

Excellent...wasn't that their first gig (or did I imagine that)? It's quite possible but my memory doesn't run as far as that, I do remember drinking a lot of beer. Wadsworth that year according to the programme, was that their first year? I preferred the Theakstons. |

Here's an atmospheric sun set picture from Friday night Cropredy 1984.
The sun appears to be suspended from a wire!
I might post some pictures from Cropredy 1985 later.
