After years of looking for our Dad close up I found him. Brom Harvey. The trumpeter next to the drummer. we lost Dad to cancer 35 years ago, and like Norman Browns son , we miss him still. great days of music.

So happy to have come across this. I remember going to see the Syd Lawrence Band in Guildhall, Winchester with my Mother, when I was probably 12 years old, and enjoying it so much. So much so, that I went up and asked for their autographs!

I probably gave you a programme and even sold you a recording on tape in those days I travelled with Syd Lawrence in his car that would have been a Rolls Royce Gill

Thank you for bringing the Syd Lawrence orchestra from the deepest corner of my memory! I remember seeing them on Les Dawson’s show in the seventies quite regularly.

oh wow! I only just found this now, my dad Norman Brown was tenor sax player in the Syd Lawrence Orchestra for many years, you can see him soloing on Pennsylvania 65000. I miss him terribly and our talks about music, he is now in a care home suffering from Alzheimer’s and vascular dementia.

Very sorry to hear that Sam. I played in bands with your dad and he did some recordings i think with the Andy Prior orchestra I was in at the time. Fantastic sax player & quite a legend amongst fellow musos! My trumpet teacher Dave Browning was also in Syd's band. Best wishes to you and Norman!

You're very lucky to have found a video of your dad playing. I'm extremely jealous. My dad played professionally in the 20's and 30's in a midwest (Chicago, Ill.) band; I remember he and my mom telling stories about band life, but unfortunately there wasn't any video back then.

The trumpet player on the left on the Royal Variety is Johnny Lawton I think,

If I didn’t know better I would swear the drummer on the Royal Variety Clip is my old a dear friend, Geoff Myers?

Looks like the Sez Lez recordings were done in one day, and then spliced into some of the endings of the show over the series ?

Yes there was a days rehearsal and then a live recording in the evening with the guest appearance of some very high class performers. I was in the audiece every week when I was a driver for a member of the SLO
