Ron Bowdery Bio:

worked with Joe Meek, legendary record producer of 'Telstar' & Jack Baverstock of Fontana, who produced some of Dusty Springfield's early records. Worked with Gene Vincent,Garry Mills, Joe Brown, Ricky Wayne, Sounds Incorporated, Nero & the Gladiators & many others. Currently, I have a CD entitled Cantii; inspired by beautiful Kent, the Garden of England on sale in Kent shops. Having just signed for SiBee records there is an album due out shortly called 'Chillsville'
In the 60's & 70's I worked with Ray Rice, who I still work with to this day. I the 70's Ray & I were in a great band called 'Pepys Diary' We had a great singer, Frank Hill - sadly no longer with us.
Frank could sing Status Quo numbers & then move on to Natking Cole & Andy Williams numbers. Musically thoroughly enjoyable & a brilliant period.

Vocal version of 'In the land of strange fruit' which is a tribute to the late Billie Holliday, who with great courage sang about the same subject. With my vocals Michael Buble doesn't have too much to worry about.

Hooray Henries were around @ the time of the General Strike in 1926, they tried to break the strike by driving buses. They were public school types. The Hooray Henries are still about today. The middle bit is meant to be satirical & not taken literally. To be fair to them there is no evidence that they wanted to shoot peasants & not pheasants. Featuring Jeff Norman on Bass. Jeff is featured in the photo.
