Honey Lantree drummer in The Honeycombs

One of the original chicks with sticks - rare to have a female in those days. Great drummer - I hadn't realised she'd died in December 18.

Who could forget Have I The Right? Great for having a bop to

I didn't know either.
RIP Honey.

Not too many girl drummers in the early days,as you say.The only other one I can think of is Moe Tucker of the Velvet Underground.

What a great song that was and still is. As you say, really unusual to have a female drummer.

R.I.P

Why does that video remind me of Thunderbirds?

Her Husband of 50 years also died in the same year.

Do remember at the time the abuse this band got because of a female drummer.

I thought she was a better Drummer than some.

Nice report from OZ land.
