"Myself, Willie Salmon, Robbie Whiting, Fred and Dave Pattison formed Design for Living at The Tec high school. For a short while we had 2 drummers myself and Daniel a young French jazz drummer. Robbie went on to be called the DRUNK after an infamous party. Bruno Peak joined at a later stage to sing and secured a deal with the millionaire and great character Francis Holmes when the name changed to Train, the company Train Musicians Ltd.. We sold out Tiffanys prior to European gigs. When Bruno left to pursue his now famous production company, Mark Weaver with his power house vocals took over. I could go on and on. Dave still has the guitar bug I own Reboss Services Ltd , we have a collection of great guitar amps and drums, we supply the sound for the Waterfront and all the Vauxhall weekender events and over the years worked with so many amazing named bands and US.Icons. My Nephew Mark Leyton ( Leggett ) continues in the busines himself a brilliant performer but also the owner of BING- LEYTON ENTERTAINMENTS, worldwide artiste agency. I have so many photos will find some and post. My joy is reggae having spent so much time in Nairobi Kenya with some fantastic musicians and of coarse the infamous Salty Man. Time to go used my Facebook time for the next year,finally guard your privacy and spare a thought for the street kids of Nairobi some who proudly wear the Classic Rock Tee shirts 50 Bands and no sleep always given by my pal Eddie the festival owner."
