To make a few comments on here doesnt do that time justice. I emigrated to Australia two years before he died and it upsets me that I wasnt able to do more for him in the last year. I miss the musical perfectionist. I recently was made aware of over 30 youtube videos that some kind gent uploaded. They feature songs that Micky was well known for playing in two gigs. Hope you dont mind me posting the link here.

So I asked him and he said after Joe B Mauldin the Buddy Hollies bass player. He was still calling me Joe when he spoke to me at the Cross Inn where he often played in recent years. He was a lot more knowledgeable than the rest of us at school about musicians and music especially of those across the pond. Micky once won a quiz on CBC Cardiff Broadcasting Company on the Phil Suarez - One mans week show ! ... he had won a set of guitar strings ... so Phil Suarez asked him what type do you use and Micky said Gibson Medium Gauge. This was the start of the 80's but these may have been for an acoustic guitar. But the bottom strings on the tele never sounded light with Micky's playing !
