    Hedgehoppers Anonymous, where are they now?

    Question #55215. Asked by tamarindgh.

    McGruff

    Mick Tinsley - vocals
    John Stewart - lead guitar
    Alan Laud (or Ladd) - guitar
    Ray Honeyball (or Honeybull) - bass guitar
    Leslie Dash - drums

    They disbanded in 1966 and I can't find anything else about them.

    I'm having trouble finding sites that agree on their names, never mind what happened to them.

    Mick Tinsley remained the vocalist with Hedgehoppers Anonymous throughout three band line-ups, till they split at the end of 1966, after four follow-up singles had failed to emulate the success of It's Good News Week. Let It Be Me was the launch single for Mick's solo career.

    Before the band, except for Ladd, they were all in the RAF.

    The lead singer Mick Tinsley, under the name of Mick Dallon, also wrote songs for Neil Christian, The Sorrows and Genevieve (whoever they may have been) and has recently been seen performing in the Mick Tinsley Trio.
    Hedgehoppers was RAF slang for low-flyers and the "Anonymous" part was added by Jonathan King. It looks like not much became of them after their good news week or two in the top ten.

    I can tell you where Alan is because I was watching the world cup with him last week in his bar on the Costa Del Sol. He and Sue run the Bus Stop bar at Playa Del Mar mar Torremolinos, Costa Del Sol and do a fun quiz there three nights a week. He has some interesting trivia about 60's pop stars he knew and is a very funny comedian if you are ever down that way.
