Uncle Tony (via email) is chuffed to find that he has been immortalised in Wikipedia.
'Melody Maker columnist Tony Wilson selected them [Yes] and Led Zeppelin as the two bands "Most Likely To Succeed" (as he states on the liner notes of the band's debut LP)'
Uncle Tony was the folk correspondent with Melody Maker in the late 60's, occasional fill in guitarist with The Spinners and an early promoter of Dana. He's the short fat bloke who slips on stage and gives her a kiss when it is announced that she has won the Eurovision Song Contest. Currently he is a short, fat Country and Western singer/songwriter and cigar shop employee living in San Marcos, Texas.
