"Choi Choy (1986) was initially Me, Smith, Ramirez, Nicholson on bass later replaced by Grinder Reeves, and Rollings. The Grinder line-up is seen as the 'classic' one. We reformed in the early 90's without Ramirez. The line ups changed a fair bit until we were joined by Ratcliff on bass and Cardy on rhythm. Lee played on an off until his death but he was covered by Clark and then Dan (can't recall his surname) with a short period of having Alfie Green, who has since gone on to be a proper musician."
