RUTH MCBOOTH AND THE FLUFFY SLIPPERS.

Years active: 1975 - 1982. RUMOURS OF POSSIBLE REFORMING MAY 2021.

This was/is a fabulous family rock band consisting of brothers Trevor and Philip and sister Frances.

Vocals: Philip and Frances Backing vocals: Trevor Saxophone: Trevor Acoustic Guitar: Philip Recorder: Frances Electric Guitar: Trevor Stylophone: Philip Piano and Triangle: Frances

Noteable tracks: Throwing My Baby Out With The Bath Water Wunderbar

They had/have a very contemporary style of music. Each brought their own unique talent to the group. Their superb songwriting skills were equal to that of Lennon and McCartney and Ulvaeus and Andersson. The vocals of the younger members,Philip and Frances, were very melodic,and have been likened to those of Tom Jones and Whitney Houston.

However, after considerable success during the late 1970s, due Philip and Frances realising that Trevor was a Psychopath and their musical tastes being so varied they decided at the height of their fame that the best thing would be to take a break.

However, on the grapevine there are now rumours that at the request of Sam Durant they could reform for a one off special performance at his wedding to Katy Wheeler in May 2021.
