Dave Formula and Jimmy Ruffin

Sad to report the legendary Motown singer Jimmy Ruffin has died at the age of 78. 

As fan's of Magazine, many of you will know that Dave Formula used to be Ruffin's piano player and arranger way back in the 70's. 

See here on Dave's personal website.

You can see Magazine members here in the audience when Jimmy played the Jools Holland show.

Magazine - Lancaster University 1978

 Fabulous Photo's shared by Paul Fishwick of Howard and John McGeoch onstage at Lancaster University in 1978.

One of Paul's memories of this gig was Howard shouting out to the punks in the crowd "How can I sing you a love song with Phlegm dripping from my nose.  Now stop spitting or we are going."

'I Swear I Was There,' is a book written by David Nolan and features the reflections of some of those from the Manchester Punk Scene who were at the now infamous Sex Pistols two shows.  The shows were put on by Howard Devoto and Pete Shelley and the youngest member of the audience was myself at both gigs, yes I swear I was there.

Thank you to Gordon Faulds for allowing me to share one of his fantastic photos of Magazine featuring, Howard, Barry and Dave along with Laura Teresa the bands backing vocalist.

Gordon has advised he has negatives to more pics from the show/soundcheck which I am hoping he might allow me to share one day also.

For now I'm extremely chuffed and grateful to Gordon for letting me use this on the blog.

The photo was taken at Magazines gig in Coventry 1979.
