Adrian C. Tills - British Royal Navy - 1960s

Hi Andy,

He wrote songs for Rose Iwanaga, the Reyes Sisters, EveyLyn, Evelyn Bridger and Janice Wee. He put out his own records under the name of Roy Stevens.

Please let me know if Adrian’s name rings a bell with anyone and if there is any news about Mr Lee H King.

Steve Farram

(Do write in if you have. I am sure there are people out there who are willing to share information or photographs with others,)
