RIP Alan "Jock" Rodger who passed away this morning. Jock drummed on the "In Love EP" and was in the band until they broke up. When the classic line up of Gary, Jon, Martin and Jock reformed, Jock stayed on until the end of 2016. Cult Figures send condolences to his family

Our guitarist Steve loves a bit of Marc Ribot! Interesting listening!

Steve May @stevemaythe1st.bsky.social · Aug 4

Listening again to @cerysmatthews.bsky.social's interview with
@marcribot.bsky.social from Sunday - the Dennis Morris interview is great too! (If you didn't know, Ribot is one of my 'Desert Island Guitarists'! Fabulous player!)
