I knew Tony well and was luck enough to be with him often in the early 60's.I was one of the Exeter Journeymen along with the late Ken Penney and Dave Robbins. We sang at the Jolly Porter at Exeter on Tuesdays . Tony sang solo wonderfully well but would often join us as a chaotic 4some. It was more than fun.! I kept contact with him over the years. I loved his singing and still think that he was one of the best both as a singer and as a friend.
It is wonderful to hear that you are wanting to put something of this together for him.
Good luck
