THE VOGUE

MBQ - The Modern Blues Quartet 

 Warrington

 

Keith Jarman: Vocal - Harmonica. Stan Fisher: Drums. 

John Shaugnessy - Bass Guitar. Graham 'Chalky' White: Guitar. 

 

Keith is the nephew of Harry Jarman I believe, a well known pianist in the Warrington area. I am still playing with CJ & The Houserockers.

 

The Vogue band split and went on to form The Modern Blues Quartet  (I know !!! - who's idea was that!) with drummer Paul Varley from Preston band The Hookers. We had Mick Pearce on guitar from The Saxons, Neil Thompson - vocals - now an excellent guitarist in his own right and still twanging - and last but not least Geoff Moss on drums.

 

Chalky White and Mick Pearce were at Art School together in Wigan - lots of players came out of the Art Schools. Geoff Moss, Chalky White, and John Weir - Bass player - eventually moved to Portsmouth and London playing avant guard Jazz and Blues. John Weir was a member of Warrington bands The Rent Collectors and The Impacts.

 

After a move to London John played in a band called Hebalob - I believe that some members of this band went on to form Van De Graf Generator. It is fascinating to trace the threads of various musicians and bands.

Graham White: January 2012
