Deep Throats
When Punk hit London in 1976, the ripple effect was felt through out the UK. As Chelmsford was only 30 minutes above North London the effect was felt over night. Several small bands answered the call to arms, one of which was DEEP THROATS along with Solid Waste and The Lepers to name a few. The local scene grew and grew and in September the next year, they even staged their on Punk Rock Festival!
In Chelmsford towards the end 1977 Ken “Buster” Wigley said to Kev Wright “do you want to form a band”. They both loved punk music and it seemed the right thing to do. Buster heard rumours of a drummer called Vernon Fuller, who though only 15 years old was already a legend at Westlands secondary school. Buster found out where he lived, knocked on his door and asked him if he wanted to be a Rock And Roll star, Vernon said yes please. On joining the band he was re-named “Rat Fagin”. Separately, Kev heard about a guitarist from Maldon who also loved Punk music, soon after Paul Mardon joined the band. In need of a bass player, Paul asked his mate Dave Lloyd if he fancied it, Dave said yes although he couldn’t play. After a crash course in how to play bass, Dave also became part of the band. So the journey began. The band rehearsed intensively, usually 3 times a week at the Galleywood Youth Centre, so it was fitting that their first gig was there in February 1978. They were an immediate hit with the locals and were picked up by a local music impresario, Mike Marsh, who promoted gigs at Chelmsford’s Chancellor Hall. This gave the band a support gig with the Adverts. The band drifted apart in early 1980 but got back together in 1986.
