JOHN WILLIAM BALDRY - 1941 to 2005 - Long John Baldry
passed away at the Vancouver General Hospital, July 21 at 10:30 pm after fighting a severe chest infection for the past 4

a very interesting essay
by Richard Williams of
The Guardian
the website of Carlo Little, drummer
for some of the top RnB acts in Britain
in The Sixties
our web page about the British
"harp" virtuoso who inspired
so many musicians
The Birth of British Pop
a page from the website of
Carlo Little, drummer with
many of the RnB outfits who
played inand around London
in the early to mid sixties.
absolutely fascinating stuff
here a rare portrait indeed
RnB Years
Cyril Davies was an important
pioneer for R&B in Britain,
a godfather of British rock.
Read how he poached
Carlo Little in 1962 to join
the band whose music
"inspired the Stones...had to
be heard to be believed"
: Bill Wyman.
So much did Mick, Keith
and Brian admire Carlo's
talent they asked him to
leave Cyril Davies All-Stars
and join them!
