(c’70s) Eddie Russell (vocals), Adrian Haiselden (guitar), Mick Stone (bass), and John Hinsley (drums).

The band went by a number of names before settling on Greenstone. This was either concluded en-route to their first gig in a borrowed van and browsing a paint colour chart they found in the back or after a tin of paint found in the drummer’s loo. The group rehearsed at the Youth Centre Annex, Guildford.

Hinsley left when he got the opportunity to go semi-pro in Germany. Haiselden was last reported to be in Gloucester and playing in a blues band by the name of Scully. Russell, regrettably, left this realm in November 2024.
