RIP Jet Harris

[LoftyLottie]

Died today.

One of my very first musical heros and pinups on my bedroom wall.

Bless you.

this is very sad LL, I had a 45 of him and Tony Meehan playing Diamonds?
and most of the Shadows as well

[crisper]

Just read this story.. what a shame... Very talented artist! xx

[moonraker558]

Thats sad.

[LoftyLottie]

Think I still have got that 45 Bobbi!!

I think my crushes at the time were Adam Faith, Jet Harris and Johnny Leyton. All blondes.

But he seriously was a good musician, bless him.

Awww, shades of my youth.... RIP. He always had an edgy look to him which I found very attractive.

[anneasquith]

very tallented.

[LoftyLottie]

I agree with both of you, Boxy and Anne!! Edgy and talented. I was looking at Youtube clips of him playing only recently. He was still entertaining.

It would take a lot more than a T shirt Anne. Just got a bit fed up of the grumpy old woman - it was too close to the truth!!!

[Bobbisox]

thanks LL this brought many happy memories flooding back of my days sharing a caravan up in Amble with another 3 girls, this was in the early 60s, we thought we were so chic back then..lol

[LoftyLottie]

We did indeed, Bobs.

I never liked Cliff Richard, but loved the Shadows, especially the lovely Jet of course.

[Bobbisox]

Hank and Bruce belonged up here LL and I believe went to the same school as Sting

[netibiza]

Bye bye Jet, loved that era!

[LoftyLottie]

Sting, another edgy blonde that I loved!!!

Off now, have to shop and get out in that garden.

Have a nice weekend.

[LoftyLottie]

Morning Neti. xxxx

[Bobbisox]

wouldn't it be great if we could have" I was a 60s teenager, club"
We wouldn't bother anyone and no one would be negative, we could just reminisce until our hearts content
Rose coloured specs?
ok..LOL

[missprim]

Excellent idea bobbisox but doesn't it make you feel old when you here news like this? People who were our favourites in the 60's are now leaving us, lots of them before their time.So sad.
