……..hanging out together and discovering playing music was a blast. |
"Eric" (named after Adrian's infamous fish and slug colored guitar) were just a group of friends hanging out and discovering playing music could be fun. At various times "Eric" featured:- Adrian Pratt - piano, bass and Eric Paul Maylor (a.k.a Sala) - guitar and mandolin. Philip Jones - (a.k.a Bona) - guitars and harmonica Paul Wynn (a.k.a Henri) - violin Standby Mick (a.k.a. 'The King of Norway') - drums Simon Edmonson (a.k.a Fred) - electric guitar |
Mostly 'Eric' tried to play cover versions of other peoples songs They also threw in a few self penned things |
One song "Exercise in Punkoid Nausea" was written years before punk rock became a technical term used by journalists. |
