Monday July 6th 1969

The last night of Friars Phase One

Argent

Chameleon

 

Rod Argent  Robert Henrit  Jim Rodford  Russ Ballard

  

    

 

   

   

 

This was the last Friars Aylesbury gig at the Friarage Hall. The hall itself was knocked down in October 2007.

Whatever you hear to the contrary, God Gave Rock and Roll To You is an Argent song. It is NOT a Kiss song.

 

Henrit and Rodford went on eventually to join the Kinks. Argent has continued a successful career often touring with Colin Blunstone at The Zombies. In 2008 a full Zombies band and The Yardbirds toured together (including Rodford who whilst involved in getting The Zombies going never played with them in their heyday). Ballard went on to be a successful songwriter (Hot Chocolate and Roger Daltrey amongst others)
