Alma Quon on the drums was the instigator and leader of the band. There are two women in this group who are of German background. Photograph is dated as 1955, partly because of the fashions and partly because of personal comments made by Alma and there is also an earlier photograph of Alma in Melody Makers which is dated as 1940s.
