Beckett Old Grey Whistle Test

[@franzapp-oldgamerjustforfu5025]

Great band, massively underrated,love ‘em.

[@tonygrey1484]

Currently reading former Beckett manager Geoff Docherty's book "Three Minutes of Magic", much of it devoted to his time managing Beckett, the best band to come out of South Shields.

Que banda incrível!! Que som!! Tão antigo e tão bom!! Música em sua mais pura essência. Esses caras influenciaram ninguém menos que Steve Harris...

[@mikecelli1517]

Glad I saw them live. Support to the Sensational Alex Harvey Band if memory serves at Hull City Hall. Deserved more recognition as did Crawler who TWS went on to front.

[@AlfredUckham]

Bob Barton what a guitarist

[@twotonetedfromteddingtone4584]

[@paulb9855]

BIT had loads of great bands.... Scorpions, Motorhead etc.... No wonder I have Tinnitus 😂

[@grahamtaylor9341]

I met Kenny Mountain (rythym guitar) in India 1978. Lovely guy. No longer with us sadly.

[@michaelmccue751]

Sublime

[@johnross2924]

I see the word " sublime" everywhere on KZbin comments, yet I have yet to hear anyone say it in real life 🤣

[@DeltaJazzUK]

I thought it was Terry Reid for a minute

[@DaveSaunders01]

Yes, he did... :)

[@bminney]

Sless still performing. His voice is still amazing. Catch him with Kossoff...The Plays On with the incredible John Buckton

[@chutsler]

Terry Slesser doing his best Percy interpretation.....😁

[@psychicmarketingblueprint]

Odd. Good. But odd. Killer drummer

[@nickmannion3879]

I thought Beckett were either co managed or promoted by Rod Smallwood? He certainly managed Terry WS who actually auditioned for Iron Maiden. Also am sure RS had nothing to do with suggesting Maiden rip off a track from the Beckett album and 'Maiden it up'.....as 'nobody will remember them'....for which they (IM) had to settle out of court for a substantial amount when the writer of said track suddenly 'heard his song' many years later. Rascals eh?

[@davek5749]

Great band the lead guitarist has a freeky style in playing but great 💯👍
