Hendy's still doing well out in Beni & was on good form! He does his own show under the name Cheroot as well as an Eagles Tribute with his Pal Dave...very good too, well worth seeing if yer out there!

I knew Pop very well, he came down to London around 1972 and came to a few gigs that I was doing. I couldn't really say what he was up to, not on this site. Suffice to say he was quite a character! Incredible head of red curly hair, sorry to hear that he passed away. James.
