FARON 1963 – Faron’s Flamingos
Including what is considered the 'best Merseybeat track', this is the early band, which featured great harmony work. Trevor Morais was on drums. Later, he moved to America and became a leading session drummer - he played on Tina Turner’s ‘The Best’. The talented Faron on Bass and Vocals was joined by Nicky Crouch and Paddy Chambers who played ‘double-lead’ and vocals. This was a really outstanding group, who should have gone on to major chart success.
