The first New Zealand beat band to play the UK club scene at the height of the 1960s British pop explosion, Me And The Others evolved from a combination of Christchurch units that included drummer and later top producer Peter Dawkins and legendary bass player Gary Thain.
Bass players in rock bands mostly blend in as part of the rhythm section, rarely taking centre stage, but the melodic, lead guitar style and mesmerising stage presence of Gary Thain broke the mould.
Whilst waiting for Dave Chapman and Peter Dawkins to arrive in the UK in 1966, Paul Muggleston worked briefly as part of "The Dalton Brothers" in a cowboy themed riding show in Kirby.
