EDITORS COMMENTS
Coventry's "new wave jazz-rock" pop group, The Reluctant Stereotypes, celebrate their victory in a London heat of a prestigious national music contest organized by Melody Maker. This talented band has been honing their craft for the past three years and has become a regular fixture at popular venues such as Nuneaton's Griff and Coton Club and the Green Dragon pub in Stratford. Despite juggling full-time jobs, these dedicated musicians find time to practice together. The Reluctant Stereotypes have taken matters into their own hands by self-financing their debut single record titled "The Lull" which was expertly recorded at Bird Studios in Warwick. Fans can look forward to its release on Raw Records soon. In this print captured on May 17th, 1979, we see the members of The Reluctant Stereotypes posing proudly from left to right: Paul Sampson showcasing his guitar skills, Martyn Bates lending his powerful vocals, Steve Edgson adding depth with his saxophone melodies, Mick Hartley holding down the rhythm on bass guitar, Chris Dunne providing an energetic beat on drums, and Steve Haddon strumming away on another guitar. This snapshot immortalizes an exciting moment in Coventry's vibrant music scene during the 1970s. It serves as a testament to the passion and dedication that fuels this remarkable group of musicians who are poised for even greater success.
