GUEST,IGB Folklore: Blackpool/Fylde band ??? Boots 1960s/70s (3) RE: Folklore: Blackpool/Fylde band ??? Boots 1960s 03 Mar 07


Bonded Boots - Howard Bond & Dave Walters.

Residents at Fleetwood Folk Club @ the Queens 1969-

Ian Gartside co-Resident Fleetwood FC c1970 - (after The Wayfarers Split)

Howard & Dave were joined by Boz in the early 70's then went off to seek their fame in London - Howard is still playing (in fact he did a stand-in stint with the Ian Gartside Band in 2005 and was on stage with them at Fylde Folk Festival on the Sunday Night.)

When Dave returned to Blackpool area he formed a band (Sullivan) and a Scuba Diving Business with Ian Gartside - "The Belle Ballerina" song came out of this when they split.

Dave Walters - has several Recordings to his name with several line ups (Including The Dave Walter's Band) - a search on Google will give you several reference to appearances and recordings.

Howard Bond likewise.


hope the above helps...

Pete
