Geoff Nicholson, writing for the Friars Aylesbury website in 2007 said:       

 "(Friars)....was one of our favourite places to play."

Did you know that at the previous Friars gig  John Peel negotiated to not take a fee so long as the first 100 people got in free to this gig. David Stopps duly obliged.

Fat Mattress split in 1970 following their second album. Noel Redding died in 2003
