More sad news.......

Don Waldon, owner of Mir-A-Don Records, just informed me that Archie died last month. He had no other details I'm afraid.

Archie was a member of the Ascots, who cut some mighty fine tunes, and then the Presidents

R.I.P Archie

Andy

The Presidents made a few great tracks ...............

Their career was spoilt when they had to give up their name to a group that had used it earlier.

They became Trilogy but in doing so lost their 'hit profile' and so just about all radio plays on new releases.

Also had the release on Mir-a-don with Pat Thompson - "Darling,darling".

RIP Archie Powell.

A fabulous voice - such a rich tone - wish he had recorded more material during his Ascots period. Anyone got any pictures of the Mir-A-Don group?

RIP Archie.

Could this be them?

Yes it is them

Archie is standing in the middle
