Can YOU Help? - Tally Ho pub-Fortess Road

8th July 2008, 10:58am, view talking archive

Hi
I work at a hospital for people over 65 and I have a client who used to be in the Alan Littlejohn Band. The Band used to play at the Tallyho pub. I have found that the pub has now shut but i wondered if you had any info or photo's of the pub to help my clients memory. Thank you for your help in this matter.

Hi
We have searched for and found for you a picture of the pub (taken just before it closed down to make way for a new development of flats,) and have sent it to your email. Also, there are some Jazz Music websites that talk about the band and some have pictures of the band members, just type the name into google. Hope this helps. Teamwelove

I read your piece on this band while looking for some info about my uncle, Len Doughty, who was with Alan's band, I recall. I know very little about them other than I remember the name, Len played trombone and cornet and worked in advertising. He lived in Beckenham. I do vaguely remember the Tally Ho being mentioned - but not where it was. Len died in the early 70's
If you are interested in knowing anything else particularly, I may be able to recall. I have one record by them on Oriole.
