@NewburyWanderer oh! As he was in a band with my dad called MainLand , they were the support group for Leo Sayer , they also used to play at winkers, Annie's wine bar etc.
I used to see Les Payne play on Friday nights down in Chalfont St Peter. Him and a guy called "Diesel" who played electric guitar. He was an excellent musician. Sad news

Very sad, saw him several times in the early 70s, always seemed to be around to support the bigger bands in Wycombe.
@NewburyWanderer when you saw him in the 70's that wouldn't of been in a band called Mainland was it
No, he was normally just on his own.

Les used to play the odd Sunday night in the Red Lion in Little MIssenden getting on for twenty years ago. Had plenty of good nights after cricket.
