The Strangers (90's band)

 The Strangers (90's band)

BACK TO THE BAND INDEX

We received this photo of the The Strangers from Amelia Jackson. Her father Roger Michael Jackson apparently played in this band, often at the Cheylesmore. The blocks on the stage seem to read Strangers, so we assume that's the name of this band. There is another later band (as far as I know) called the Strangers and I'm assuming they are not one and the same. If anyone can shed any light on this band or Roger, please let us know. Further info below.

We think Roger is on right of this picture with the guitar.

Amelia tells us that her father was 'in a ton of bands' from the 60's onwards, including this (so far unidentified band) -

Roger Jackson is on the right and next to him could be (but not sure) . Left we think is Freg Liggins, the Tenor Sax player who was with the Boll Weevils in the 60's. However we don't what this band was called. Any information welcome.

Here's some further info on Amelia's dad, Roger Michael Jackson, who passed away recently "He was born in Coventry in 1946 and lived there til the mid 90's. He was a bass/guitar player. Played a lot of the Cheylesmore. He spent most of his life in Coventry as a furniture polisher/assembler."
