Peter Cook

Following the recent funeral (February 2017) of John Wilson, former VT editor and EM on London OBs, Geoff Taylor and I have been trawling our memories and those of other interested colleagues to identify everyone and are just 8 names light. Any help would be appreciated.

The photo and partial list of names are attached. Geoff thinks that the guy back row 3 from left with tie and bald head (under John Wilson’s chin) is Geoff Jowitt. Can anyone confirm that?

Other unknowns can found on the list of names. Four blokes middle row I think are Scene and Sparks. One girl and bloke with dark rim specs; guy far right wearing cardigan and fair haired chap with specs front row next to Keith Gunn (bearded).

The photo was taken before the Count Basie concert 27th October one of a series of  eight gigs at Snape.
