Blimey, seemed a nice down to earth chap in interviews. He was known as Shane Fenton in the early days.  RIP

I knew he was Shane Fenton, but didn't know any of this...

In the early 1960s, "Shane Fenton and the Fentones" were an unknown teenage band who recorded a demo tape and mailed it in to a BBC programme with the hope of being picked to appear on television. While awaiting a reply from the BBC, the band's 17-year-old singer Shane Fenton died as a result of the rheumatic fever he had suffered in childhood.

The rest of the band (guitarists Jerry Wilcox and Mick Eyre, bassist William "Bonny" Oliver and drummer Tony Hinchcliffe) decided to break up, but then unexpectedly received a letter from the BBC inviting them to come to London to audition in person for the programme. Fenton's mother asked the band to stay together, and to keep its name, in honour of her son's memory. Jewry, who was a roadie with the group at the time, was asked to become the new Shane Fenton.

RIP Mr Stardust.

IMPORTANT ADVICE:

2 tablespoons of tomato ketchup/day  contains enough lycopenes to assist in the prevention of prostate cancer.
Seriously consider taking this, because I have for the last 30 years.

Hope this helps.

It doesn't matter what you put it on as long as 2 tablespoons are ingested. The effects of the consumption of the aforementioned foods is a separate issue.

I hope this clarifies the menu as above!

My brother died of this aged just 61. I'm not too far off that but fit as the proverbial fiddle.Red is my choice of colour of sauce, John preferred brown. So there may be some truth in what Slicer says Wink

Preliminary research has shown that people who consume tomatoes may have a lower cancer risk, possibly due to lycopene affecting mechanisms of prostate cancer.[3][7] However, this area of research and the relationship between lycopene and prostate cancer have been deemed insufficient of evidence for health claim approval by the US Food and Drug Administration.

Sad news, another one gone.  Before he became Alvin Stardust - in the 60's he was Shane Fenton with his backing group The Fentones. But he was not the original Shane Fenton.

The original group posted a demo tape of their music to the BBC with the hope that it would be picked up by a producer and that they could appear on a music show.

However, as they awaited a reply from the broadcaster, Shane Fenton, the band’s lead singer, died of rheumatic fever.

The band broke up, then unexpectedly received the letter they had been waiting for from the BBC asking them to come to London and audition for the programme in person.

Alvin Stardust (then Jewry) was a roadie for the group and was asked to become the new 'Shane Fenton'.  And years later in the Glam Rock period he became Alvin Stardust.

RIP
