Marty Wilde had one of the greatest guitarists this country ever produced---Big Jim Sullivan ---phenomenol!
If he is still playing you are in for a treat.

Not recently but....In the mid-sixties I worked with him a couple of times. He was an absolute gentlemen. Whilst struggling to carry my guitar and amp through swing doors he rushed over and said "I'll take that" lifting my (very heavy) Vox amp with consumate ease!!
