97 – The Zodiax
1962

About this memory
1962 – The Zodiax played in and around Edinburgh and the rest of the UK from 1959-1965. They played the Palais de Danse in Fountainbridge as well as touring the UK during which time they supported Jet Harris and Tony Meehan. When David’s cousin Billy Hewie left the band David bought his Reslo microphone and a pair of home made speakers for The Hipple People. David was so pleased with the gleaming silver mike that he slept with it under his pillow that night. Exciting times to follow !!
