Trust Pete to have his hands on the Lester Tipton !!

What price would those three records fetch today : Lester Tipton issue, Al Williams demo and a Frankie Karl demo !

He was always as mad as a hatter. Remember roaming the streets of Bolton with Pete the night VaVa's got closed down and a group of us spending the night s*****d in some West Indian all night joint which must have doubled as a drinking den, soul food joint, and based on the goings on upstairs twas probably a knocking shop to boot !

He was certainly one of the scenes characters and had an uncanny ability to turn up great records on a regular basis - a sad loss !
