I meant the "real" Chocolate Watchband that I used to see in 1966! I 
know Dave Aquilar has been out playing again, but that is a band that 
wasn't meant to exist out of their time.

In the early 70's Dave used to work for Lanceford Press, a publishing 
company owned by the father of one of my brothers good friends. They 
used to ask him about the Watchband, and he would just laugh and say no 
one was interested, including himself. I still kick myself for not 
pulling out the Sean Tolby ledger page from the Discount Records house 
accounts book. He owed a balance!

A few of those guys used to still come in the shop when I worked there 
in 73+75. Aguilar, Sharkey from Syndicate Of Sound and others...
