Billy idol & Tony James

Born in England on 30 November 1955, William Michael Albert Broad came to the United States at age four, only to return to his land of birth in 1962, where he lived with his family above a pub called The Running Horses in Dorking, Surrey.

A diehard fan of the Sex Pistols, he teamed up with another devotee of punk rock, bassist Tony James (who would go on to play in Sigue Sigue Sputnik.)

The two joined the hardcore punk group Chelsea, and Idol made his first live appearance at a London gig in 1976.

Later that year, Idol and James left Chelsea along with drummer John Towe, recruited guitarist Bob Andrews, and formed their own band, Generation X, giving their debut performance in London in December. By summer of the following year, Generation X was signed with Chrysalis Records, and their first single, "Your Generation," reached UK#36.

In two years the band would have four more UK chart singles -- "Ready Steady Go" (#47), "King Rocker" (#11), "Valley Of The Dolls" (#23) and "Friday's Angels" (#62).


In 1981, Gen X released their last album, Kiss Me Deadly; the line-up now consisted of Idol and James with ex-Clash drummer Terry Chimes and former Chelsea guitarist James Stephenson.

The single "Dancing With Myself" stalled at UK#60 and the album did not do well.

Idol was ready to go his own way. He was destined for superstardom in the 1980s, even though his spiked, platinum-blond hair, black leather attire and snarling punk rocker demeanor blinded some to the fact that this was a substantial talent who would craft a distinctive sound by cleverly blending punk, metal and new wave sounds.


February 1981
Idol quits Gen X. In New York, he begins an association with producer/drummer Keith Forsey and Kiss manager Bill Aucoin, and embarks on a solo career as Aucoin secures him a contract with Chrysalis



***************************************



Tommy Mc Cook

Sadly Tommy Mc Cook died on Monday 4 May 1998, our condolences go out to his family and friends. He will be remembered for his Ska music played on the tenor saxophone and flute with the Skatalites and the Supersonics, who were the Duke Reid session band at Treasure Isle recording studios. Tommy lead the band and was also the musical arranger, he helped to develop Rock Steady and Reggae. Born in 1927 he attended Alpha Boys School in Kingston Jamaica, a breeding ground for great musicians.

Roland Alphonso

(b. January 12, 1931 in Havana, Cuba. d. November 20, 1998 in Brooklyn New
York) Tenor saxophone. Founding member of The Skatalites. Died of Stroke.
