Members of The Yardbirds, The Eel Pie All-Stars plus family and friends of Top Topham, including Peter French, Tim Hain, Peter Miles and Dave Peabody, will perform a special tribute to this talented guitarist and artist, who passed away from Dementia on 23 January 2023, age 75. The event will benefit The Alzheimers Society https://www.alzheimers.org.uk.

Before there was Jimmy Page, Jeff Beck and Eric Clapton, there was Top Topham. The original guitarist in one of the most famous, guitar-hero filled bands in rock history, Topham was the guitarist who started it all. Though his tenure with the band was short lived, being only 15 years old at the time his parents had issues with his late nights spent jamming in clubs, his influence can still be felt to this day. A blues lover at heart, in the same vein as Eric Clapton was when he was with the band, Topham continued to record and perform stellar blues-inspired music after leaving The Yardbirds back in 1963. And went on to play guitar for Christine McVie, Duster Bennett, and Fleetwood Mac founder Peter Green.  Tickets £16 via www.eelpieclub.com
