Alan Avon, holder of the finest voices in late sixties and early seventies rock, shone brightly with his band The Toyshop. They are fondly remembered and are best known for two tracks in particular, “Send My Love To Lucy” and “Night To Remember”. They feature on the essential compilations of UK Psych – Chocolate Soup, Fading Yellow, Hen’s Teeth and Rubble. For the first time speaking to Jason Barnard, Alan sheds light on his time with the band.
