(c’86-’87) Paul Pomery (bass), Nick Murton (drums) and ?.
Probably named for the Billy Eckstine and Gerald Valentine written track that appeared, in late ’62, on Dexter Gordon’s Go LP, we first hear of Second Balcony Jump at a Buzz Club local band night on 15 November ’86. Here they supported Steel Bill and the Buffaloes, FRA, and West One, at the West End Centre, Aldershot, with The Jeremiahs being added late. Two months later, on the 10 January ’87, the band were back at The Buzz Club supporting The Brilliant Corners and Bluetrain.
Between these two Buzz Club appearances, on 21 December ’86, they supported Mega City Four at The Old Schoolhouse, Woking. They went on to support both Jim Jiminee and International Resque at Fleet Football Club, and later morphed into Pomeroy.
Bassist Pomeroy who’d also been in Black Easter.
