ONCE UPON A TIME A MANCHESTER BAND KNOWN AS 'SPONGE' HEARD THAT THE DRUMMER OF WIMPLE WINCH WAS AVAILABLE AND ASKED HIM TO TRY OUT A FEW NUMBERS WITH THEM AT A REHEARSAL ROOM, LIKED WHAT THEY HEARD AND PERSUADED HIM TO BECOME A PERMANENT MEMBER. 

So alongside Barry Reynolds, Graham Harrop, Brian Chapman, Jack Lancaster and Pete Gray the band embarked on a hectic tour of the North West's club scene developing their style of music which was later to be known as Progressive Rock.  Larry now takes up the story.........

"What struck me right away was the combined sound of Barry's excellent lead work, Brian's Hammond Organ sound and Jack's skills withe Sax and Flute. Also their attitude was musically sharp and although we were doing mostly covers you could tell they had a lot of musical ideas of their own.I soon settled in."   (to be continued....)
