Alberto Y Los Trios Paranoias

Line-up

Jimmy Hibbert
C P Lee
Chris Gill - drums
John Scott
Tony Roberts

 

This would be a little after the sixties, but I have fond memories of Alberto y Los Trios Phttp://www.manchesterbeat.com/groups/brianmarks/brianmarks.phparanoias. G8 humour - like a guy would be playing hendrix style guitar, really going for it, screams and dive bombs - the lot. About 5 mins into the set a curtain would fall, revealing the real guitarist (the other guy was expertly miming) to his fake outrage!

As I recall it was Jimmy Hibbert, C P Lee, Chris Gill, Bruce Mitchell (still a very fine muso with Duruty Column) and sometimes John Scott & Tony Roberts - all still in & around the Manc area.

As well as Jimmy Hibbert and CP Lee Bruce Mitchell played drums and Simon White played guitar also Ian (Mogs) Morrison played bass ans John Scott Sax and guitar, this was the line up circa 1981/2 when I recorded a lot of stuff with them at my "Bootleg Studios" inc. re-hash of "Snuff Rock" the albums "Radio Sweat" and "Slime Boy"

Saw the Albertos at UEA in the 70s. They were brilliant and hilarious. CP Lee in particular is very underappreciated.
