“Hi Eileen, Allan and Neil,
Hello to all,
It's great to know that the group is not forgotten.
Eileen thanks for the info re the 1972 recording.
Thank you Neil, I appreciate your kind offer and I've just emailed you as you suggested.
All the best,
Allan J”

“Hi Allan,
It's great to hear from you again. Thanks for the info about the tapes and it's a pity that they're not usable as I think the guys were one of the best groups I've ever heard. As mentioned, I 'you tube' Richard quite a lot and also the Cresters singles that are available.... trying to keep my own copies in good nick. How are you keeping and I hope the playing is still at the top of your agenda.
As an aside, I wonder if you've ever come across Johnny McKeand in your travels as I've still got a Roy Orbison 'In Dreams' LP he loaned to me all those not so many years ago.
All the best, Allan”

“Hi Eileen B, I've just come across this site through my interest in Malcolm Clarke and the Cresters who used to play at the Two Red Shoes, Elgin in the 60s. They were one of the best groups on the go with the brilliant Malcolm and Richard, also John Harding, a great bass player and comedian Johnny Casson, an excellent drummer. I've only got three of their singles but would love to hear more of their recordings if you would still be willing to supply copies. I go on you tube regularly to watch and listen to Richard's beautiful style of playing.
Thank you,
Allan J”
