Looking Back: Reunion photo is a doorway to the past for cool dude Dennis

He said It was like a second home, a great big family atmosphere with lots of joy and laughter, dramas and many great memories.

Dennis was surprised and saddened when I recently told him it was destroyed by fire and moved, not long after I had taken his picture.

He was a bass player and in several bands while he lived locally and then moved to London in 1988 where he made several albums and singles and was part of the bands Kitachi and Iration Steppas.

Dennis has a daughter and now mixes his music with a job as a driving instructor.

He added: “I have always had a passion for music since a little kid and I’m a self-taught bass player. I am also a producer and have just released an album called Revelation with Dubquake records. I have been on tour since April playing at festivals in Europe.”

Almost all of my 300 Reunions are taken in the same place in Peterborough but in 2016 I went to London to be reunited and retake Dennis’ picture after only 33 years!
