Not a name many of you will be over familiar with, but he was the lead singer with the Rock n Roll/Rockabilly band, Matchbox. Those of a certain (old) age will recall a few hit records in the late seventies and early eighties. They even made the top five in 1980 with "When You Ask About Love", but it was their first hit I think some may remember best - "Rockabilly Rebel". He toured for over sixty years and was an integral part of the international Rock n Roll scene, he even appeared at the legendary London Rock n Roll show at Wembley in 1972, as singer with The Houseshakers. He has been a presence in my life from the first time I slipped on a pair of blue suede shoes. RIP Graham, sleep easy mate.
