Guitarist Willie Halpin, drummer
Terry Brady and pianist Terry Byrne were schoolmates at Synge Street
School, Dublin in the early ‘60s, and their mutual interest in music
led them to forming a group.
Soon they were
joined by organist Alan Donaldson (Dee) and bassist Robert Ballagh
and this five-piece became the core of The Chessmen......(to
be continued in "Be My Guest"). |
