A publicity picture of the original Big Roll Band, taken after Roger had acquired one of the first Strats to arrive into the UK. The old Selmer Stadium amp is still there though!

Prior to The Blackhawks, Roger played with Johnny King and The Raiders.

He late went on to be a member of The Interns with John Rostill of Shadows fame.

Zoot Money and the Big Roll Band of course became one of the UK's Blues legends.
