He was an original member of Paul McCartney's old backup band, The Ruttles.



Ah. I was thinking the mechanic. Thanks for clearing it up.

He was Paul McCartney's mechanic?

Close, but the other way around. Remember that album cover with him facing backward? That was him.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
