Sandy Ford

Sandy is the leader of legendary 1950s UK rock'n'roll band The Flying Saucers and has been so since the early 1970s. He probably won't remind you but he once had a non speaking part in EastEnders, a BBC soap opera! He has had many LP and CD releases. The band played on the back of a truck amongst the famous teddy boy march in London in 1976 in a bid to get 1950s rock n roll played on BBC national Radio One. It worked and within a few months DJs Stuart Colman and Geoff Barker presented "It's Rock N Roll" an hourly show on Saturday afternoons for a few years. The Flying Saucers were one of the guest bands playing "live".
