T. V. Smith (born Tim Smith, 5 April
1956, Romford, England) is a British punk rock singer-songwriter, who was part
of the band The Adverts in the late 1970s. Since then, he has played with other
bands, as well as pursuing a critically acclaimed solo career. Special Duties
are a British punk rock band from Colchester, Essex. Special Duties was created
in October 1977 by schoolfellows Steve Green (Aka Arrogant), Steve Norris (Aka
Duty) and Nigel Baker. They were punks at school, but the idea of forming their
own band came when they saw The Adverts in Colchester. The fact that the three
schoolboys couldn't play and didn't own any instruments didn't discourage them.
They decided to put Arrogant on vocals, Duty on guitar and Baker on Bass. The
band was originally going to be named X-pelled, but they switched to Special
Duties when a box of around 200 badges with "Special Duties" printed on them
which had been stolen from a school in Colchester came into their possession,
the band deciding that they could save money on getting badges made by simply
changing their name to match the stolen ones. Witchfynde are a British
heavy metal band, which was one of the forerunners of the New Wave of British
Heavy Metal in the late 70s. Witchfynde were formed in Derbyshire, England in
1974 by bass guitarist Richard Blower and vocalist Neil Harvey. Richard Blower
discovered Montalo (Trevor Taylor) in a band called Atiofel. When Richard left
the band in 1975, they reformed Witchfynde with lead guitarist Montalo, bassist
Andro Coulton and drummer Gra Scoresby, and soon recruiting vocalist Steve
Bridges. Dead Man's Shadow are a West London band that formed in 1980, at the
young ages of 16 and 17.
