SALUTE KEVIN ABBEY - FOUR YEARS ON AND SADLY MISSED
 
Back in the early days of The PBGB Shed, as early as 2007, Kevin was one of our very favourite visitors. He was arguably PBGB's first 'A' list guest player.
 
Kevin used to motor down from Canberra for a day or three and we would bunker in and play music day and night. And give the beer fridge a solid nudge, just for good measure.
 
You see Kevin was an excellent vocalist, an absolutely in the pocket bass player, a first class rhythm and lead guitarist, and a hot harp player to boot. A very useful cat indeed !
 
Kev made annual pilgrimages to The Shed, often accompanied by Colin Enright, a long time mate, right up until 2015.
 
But in February 2016 came the terrible news that Kev had been killed in a motorcycle accident. That accident also caused serious injuries to Kev's partner Sophie. We were devastated. We've missed Kev ever since. RIP Kev !
 
To mark February 26, 2016, four years on, we have pulled out a previously un-posted recording which features Kevin pulling off a triple stint..........vocals, lead guitar and harp. 'She's Tuff' provides a perfect platform for Kev to strut his stuff.
 
We hope this brings back fond memories for Kev's family and friends.
 
'She's Tuff', written by Jerry McCain, was featured on the Fabulous Thunderbirds 1979 album  "Girls Go Wild'.
 
We hope y'all like it. We think of it as a good representation of Kev's musical prowess.
