JESSICA'S THEME

JESSICA'S THEME c1971
I booked Jessica's Theme for the Coventry Arts Umbrella Friday Jan 8th 1971 & Friday 19th Feb 1971. They were a heavy rock band with 2 guitarists, bass and drums and a vocalist.

Jan Gage and Jan Coombs did zeroxed some flyers and dished them out and we advertised the band in Cov Evening Telegraph.

Jessica's Theme were -  Gordon Tunnicliffe on vocals, John ? on lead guitar, Mick (Evans?) on bass guitar, Paul Bodanowych on rhythm and Bernie ? on drums, managed by Mick Cubbon from Binley Woods (Mick moved to the US and is married to a singer called Gina Noelle (Google it for more info). He’s a very good producer and has a home PC-based studio.).  They made a self-funded vinyl LP but I don’t have a copy – they were a very talented lot. I saw them often – notably at The Navigation on Stoney Stanton Rd. Numbers such as ‘Tally Man’ – Jeff Beck and ‘Gin House’ – Amen corner spring to mind.

Thanks to Cliff Wagstaff (of Cov bands  Tobacco Ash Sunday, Tropical Boot Company and Quantum (not Quantum Leap!) for the additional information here and the business card.

 

Cliff told me that Jessica's Theme were origianlly called The Motorised Grapes and here is their business card to
