TENPOLE TUDOR 1979-1983

The brilliantly rowdy Tenpole Tudor, and their noble leader, Eddie Tenpole, caught here in their full glory. It starts with 29 photos of Eddie posed in 1979, there are six live shots from Dingwalls in 1980 alongside 42 informal pics from a rehearsal in 1981 followed by a session down the pub. There are also some examples of spirited artwork Eddie provided for my fanzine, telling the story of the band on tour as well as a peculiar poem. Then we switch to the next line-up circa ‘Hayrick Song’ with 85 photos from Hammersmith Palais and 32 from Dingwalls, both in 1983, and 52 great posed shots from around the same time in 1983.
