The
best-known Banbury groups were “The Lee
Malvern Four” and the “Ken E Lee Set”.
Chris, who moved to Coventry in 1973, is now
enjoying the opportunity to play solo.
Chris says, “Playing in a
group can be a great apprenticeship, especially with a varied
play list for all occasions.
When my group playing days ended,
I decided to visit a couple of folk sessions and I was 'knocked
out' by the musicianship and the mixture of musical styles
that were played.
This solo venture has given me some of
the most rewarding times of my playing years; with the opportunity
to play my own material, a few old standards, blended with
a bit of blues and jazz, but most of all to find great new
friends and musicians”. |
