About Me

After returning home from Sweden, Simon was looking for musician's to play"Reggae" .
It was a sunny morning, late October. The sound of a saxophone echoed around the street corner of Kirkby Stephen. It was like a magnet to Simon's ears. Two Buskers where playing, creating a lively atmosphere........ Charlie on Saxophone and Paddy Rogan on Guitar..... Maybe we could get together and have a jam, so, the jam night at the Black Swan in Ravonstonedale was mentioned. Thats where they would meet up again.
The Jam night happened to fall on "Halloween", no-one had told simon it was "Fancy Dress". This didn't matter, with his massive beard and dreadlocks, everyone else thought he had come in fancy dress. This is where he met Fugly and Moz and the seed was sewn. After a couple of Jams at Simon's place, things started to fall into place. The first few jams where recorded. These tooons are those first recordings...... JAMMIN.THE TOOONS:-
The recordings are just a rough take from a spontaneous jamBINGY
The heart beats on.......................
