I was lucky enough to have played electric bass with the Savanah Dance Band from about 1977, I was with them for a couple of years. Keith was the drummer at that time and we played Dinnington Lyric regularly and many other venues. I have fond memories of Eric, Sam, Ernest, Aubrey, John and Keith. Carl Shimwell lived near me at Aston and introduced me to the band. I also remember the wives who attended all of the bookings. Happy times!
