The story of Wally is one of those strange convoluted and rather heart-warming tales which surface once in a while in the rock 'n' roll multiverse. The band was formed in Harrogate and in the early to mid-1970s and quickly built themselves quite a reputation. Fame is a fickle mistress at the best of times and for Wally the latter part of the 70s were far from being the best of times.
