Dogwatch, The Warm Jets & Special Branch

[Wrekker]

Hi, I am putting together an extended Dogwatch Family Tree along the lines of the ones that Pete Frame did and I have hit a couple of stumbling blocks.

What was the name of The Warm Jets Drummer and also who sat behind the kit for Special Branch with Dave Flett & matt Irving?

If anybldy out there can help I will be eternally grateful.

I may be wrong but was the Warm Jets drummer Dave Cairns? That name keeps coming up when I try to remember.

That would be great if you do get to release some other Warm Jets material. They were one of my favourite bands from the Bridge (along with the obvious greats, RDB/Roll-Ups/etc). I still have my tickets from the Bridge House/Warm Jets special gigs the the Music Machine at home. I also have the door poster from one of their gigs at the old Marquee.
Aaahhhh memories. There is still too much to thank you for!!!!

Hi Pete Jeff has posted the Warm Jets video that was recorded at the Bridge in 1978,you can log in from that page

Shell shock the single we released on Bridge house records is the song that they perform
Paul Ballance  is a great front man..Good but sad to see Paul Jeffrey live again.the whole band including Milton on keyboards
and Majic look and sound good,T.M
