My sincere condolences to the Phillips family for your loss. I was a member of a band from Andover called The Senators and, for a while, we had a Saturday night residency at the Club. We new Joan and Neville very well and we all got on together. One of our members was Pete Staples who went on the play bass for The Troggs and had several worldwide hit records. Prayers for your family. John Walker. Northern Virginia, U.S.A.
