[Steve L]

Anyone know who was the lead singer on their Columbia singles & album and how many of the original members are still in the line up for Prestatyn next March?

Thanks Dave but i've got details of the groups line up which is on the sleeve of their LP on Columbia , what I'm after is who sang lead and who if any of them are still in the groups line up and will be at Prestatyn

[Chalky]

Bobby Shivers was the male lead.

Lead is/was Bobby Shivers. He's the only original member appearing at Prestatyn. Elouise Pennington & James Wright are still alive in New Jersey as is Spellbinder stand-in (for the UK & Canada tours of the mid-sixties) is ex-Ad Lib Danny Austin.

About the nearest thing you'll get to an original Spellbinders line-up, taken about 9 years ago. From left, Dee Grant, Bobby Shivers, James Wright and Elouise Pennington. McArthur Mumford was ill and couldn't make the meeting both he and Dee Grant have passed away.
