[boc-l] OFF: Larry Wallis, review and RIP

[Carl Edlund Anderson]

Andy: Did we not see Larry Wallis noodling in the background behind (the also late, great) Mick Farren at a book-reading by the latter? Though I think that might have been the one time I saw either of them in person.

Cheers,
Carl

I particularly recall "Waiting for the Ice Cream to Melt", which surfaced on the Fairies' _Kill 'em and Eat 'em_ the following year. And of course I saw the Fairies touring the album. At the Cambridge Corn Exchange no less. But that show was less memorable.
