I love the drum solo by Pete Phipps, founding member of the Glitter Band (with the Glittermen since June 1972, not invited by John Rossall). Big thanks to him still sharing the stage with John Springate, another founding member of the Glitter Band. Their performance, now with Dominic Rodgers and Rob Norman, is fantastic as always. There are more shows to come this year, like in Eastleigh and Brean.
he was and still is a brilliant drummer - i used to know Pete when he was in the glitter band he also used to play in the Green Man at the Old Kent Road with the guys from Sprinker - rock on days
Love this track from the Glitter Band Album HEY !!! my most favourite of all also love I'm Celebrating..Pete Phipps still a great drummer after all the years 👍
And they say John Rossall (founder of the Glitterband and co-writer of the hits with Gerry Sheppard) is a tribute band?The sure need to look in the mirror!
Kim O'Hara has spread crap all over Facebook and is probably the most misinformed 'fan'(sic) that ever existed. Tried to totally dismiss John Rossall despite John being Co-writer of all the hit's such as 'Angel Face and Just for You' etc. Pete Phipps was NOT a founder member even though he claims he was.He was invited to join by founder member John Rossall.Which is totally different. But then when has he ever bothered about the truth?
KIM OHARA Oh you poor sad old cow.You have a poor memory.Too busy talking bollocks most of the time. Tell me when was the last time Phipps even did a concert? Of sorry I forgot he prefers to cancel them. Now just because you probably wet yourself if he were to just look at you I suggest you leave serious music makers well alone and carry on trying to get into Pete Phipps pants. That is what you want isn't it? Screaming like a little schoolgirl about somebody with the personality of a gnat. Thinking about it you are well suited. As I said you post crap all over Facebook.You are well known for it along with foul mouthed rants.
Jealous of what exactly? Your ignorance? Nope. Your impaired thoughts? Nope. The fact that you speak so much crap you probably need toilet roll to wipe your mouth? Nope. Sorry to burst YOUR bubble. I don't need to use an Alias. Your vindictive idol knows exactly who I am. He also knows that I more than stand by what I say. As I have done for the last 6 years or so. What exactly have you won? First prize in the deluded stakes? You are a vindictive old crone of the highest degree. Well known on Facebook. But you can't even admit to that can you yet you accuse me of not standing by what I say? How ignorant are you. Now run along to PeeWee with you. You are one ignorant bore and with as much direction as a broken compass.
KIM OHARA First Let me explain something. I tried to support PEEWEE. But like many others I was snubbed when I told him a few home truths. 'You might have known'? I made no bones about who I am. Unlike Phipps I don't hide behind deluded fans like yourself who does all his vulgar fighting for him. Furthermore EVERYTHING I have stated regarding Phipps actions towards me and others is true. Furthermore it has been documented for future reference. This is the same man who after I sent him a pleasant email he replied by threatening me with the police! As if the police were going to do anything about a polite email! Furthermore I have family in the police and asked them. Laughs all round! Phipps has been exposed for the nasty vindictive creep he is. Sad but true. Any artist(sic) who attacks his fans as much as Phipps has does NOT deserve to be in the Music industry. The thing is whatever you say is usually irrelevant and only based on personal feelings rather than fact. Which makes you a very deranged person. I don't block and unblock people just because I need to know whatever they are saying so I can report back to PEEWEE.It's called paranoia,something you both seem to have in common!
It is pointless even trying to talk to you Kim. Lord knows I have tried. I dislike Pete Phipps for what he has done to the Glitter Bands name. As for my life you idiot you know absolutely nothing about it. For the record I was involved with Gary Glitters 'Rock Circus' Gary himself was just starting to be unable to leave the Gary Glitter thing at the stage door and become plain Paul Gadd off stage. further more I had NOTHING against Pete Phipps until HE attacked me with assorted threats purely because I set up a support group for John Rossall. Pete Phipps had it removed. Even asking Pete what he wanted me to do fell on deaf ears. I tried every way possible to appease him to no avail. You might not like it but it's the truth. I am also personal friends with Dave Hill and Don Powell of Slade. I have no need to lie about anything. I would dearly love to be able to support the music and nothing else. But Pete will and has dismissed any fans that support John Rossall or if they say something he does not like. That is unprofessional and simply not how you treat fans. He has gained a reputation for it. That's why promoters will NOT get involve with anything GLITTER bAND. The name is not worth Jack shit anymore due to Phipps on going feud with John Rossall and of course the Gary thing. Phipps is yet to realise that he has messed up with his actions. He has had numerous chances to reunite the remaining members of the Glitter Band but refuses to do so. All facts Kim. Check it out.
hienoa, että herrat vielä jaksaa:-)). tulee ihan teiniaika mieleen:-D..tulisitte Suomeenkin.. takuulla tulisin täältä vähän pohjoisesta katsomaan teitä:-D
not too bad. timing not on with triplets/quadruplets. I've heard better with a lot of minor local bands. sorry, just not that great. As a drummer I key on more dynamics. lots of noice but nothing even close to what Bonham could do with one pedal.
