“Went up Tims for a music session, recorded Biffo the Bear”
Yes, OK, it’s finally time for me to admit I was in a band.
I had hoped to keep my true identity secret, but it would seem that my 1974 diary has now undermined my anonymity.
So, fans, if you’ve stumbled across this website (and now, this post) your wish has suddenly come true. You have successfully tracked down your seventies pop idol and it appears I can no longer continue to live in the quiet obscurity I have enjoyed for the last 35 years.
If I can cope with the very notion I will write more about my recordings – and subsequent stardom – in future diary entries, but ask you in the meantime to please keep this news to yourself so that I am not mobbed by people when I next walk across to the supermarket to buy a pint of milk.
In the event you haven’t worked out who I am, may I suggest you google the phrase “Biffo the Bear Hit Single” where you will find out everything you will need to know about my past brush with the Top 30 singles and album chart.
