Whilst
at school Ian became a member of a local Edinburgh
based blues band. It was a four piece, consisting
of guitar, bass, drums and a singer who played
blues harmonica. This band, East West,
quickly became well known and very well respected
throughout Scotland. Practically all the major
visiting English bands were supported by East
West. These included John Mayall's Blues
Band, Tony Williams Lifetime (featuring Jack
Bruce and John McLoughlin), Rory Gallagher,
Argent and many more.
