"I remember the very first group that I was part of. It was called 'The Windybank Wailers' and was made up of Tony Walker, Peter Lockwood, Geoffrey Munt and me; all residents of Windybank Estate. I recall the day that we decided who would take the lead up-front as singer. I won; not because I had the best voice, but the loudest. And besides, I was also the gang leader of Eighth Avenue. Oh, and I was also the only group member without an instrument to play!" William Forde: August 26th, 2014.
