KCP MUSIC

I began studying music and learning the guitar under the famous Lou Gallo in 1949... By 1952, I was playing in small bands in London pubs and clubs, but I soon progressed to playing in big bands at American camps and west end hotels... In 1956, I formed a double guitar act with Gerry Hart, We called ourselves (Johnny and Gerry Guitar) and in 1957 we worked the Windmill Theatre for a season. The following year we played a summer season at Butlins where Gerry left the act. Also, I was engaged to Maureen, a dancer. ( We married in 1959.
