    Well known that when things go well he over-indulges and ruins everything. I think he's one of those people that equates his talent with being wrecked and for all I know that is a true fact. Can't be easy if the only good things you invented required you to off your face on dangerous drugs. If I was him I'd get a nice job delivering for Tesco and forget it. :).

    Interesting fact that The Only ones were put together by producer and ex-Spooky Tooth drummer Mike Kellie (RIP).

    He is 69 now ...so still moving .
    He started living in the drug scene at the age of 16 after leaving home and doing his own thing (Perret ) that is .
    An ex boarding school right off and expelled from practically every school he attended .
    Think The Only Ones first started about 1976 .....They played at The Hope & Anchor venue in Islington in 1977 as i have the Album Live at the Hope & Anchor , a good old early punk venue .

    I hope he's not still moving, he died in 2017.

    I mentioned Perret not Kellie ....should have typed Perrets name earlier, put him in brackets .
    Mind you ...iam surprised he hasn't gone years ago .

    Crikey, is Perret really 69 and still effing his life up with hard drugs? BRB, I'll google... Blimey, he is, I thought he was more my age!

    My best friend from the age of 6 was half of a couple like that. Not much chance they both spontaneously see the light at the same time. That's why I don't have any sympathy really. Doomed... but then again somehow he's made to 69.

    That's not nice, I know someone with it. I thought she would catch Covid and that would finish her off but she's still going... slowly getting worse and worse. :(
    At least they, unlike her, are probably aware that they only have themselves to blame. No doubt they've adjusted their lifestyles and now eat drugs rather than smoking them.:rolleyes:
